The 87 minutes between Real Madrid and Athletic Bilbao at the Santiago Bernabeu, the home side were 1-0 upset and feeling completely helpless in putting the ball in the wood frame as the visitors were Kepa Arrizabalaga. Luka Modric desperate for a shot from the outside 16m50. The ball hits someone's foot into the net.
A lucky goal? Maybe it was just the Bilbao goal. Not necessarily! Slow turn, the ball after Modic's shot will take the ball to deviate. However, with a sensational touch, Ronaldo adjusted the path to the ball in the net. That's exactly the heel hit!
A beautiful goal and reminiscent of one of the classic goals of the legendary Alfredo Di Stefano, hit the heel Atletico Madrid. From the two strikes, the bridge between past and present is drawn, between Di Stefano and Ronaldo, the two greatest players of Real history in all aspects.
Di Stefano joined Real at the age of 27, after the first natural transfer in history. 11 years later, the Blue Arrow farewell to the Royal team at the age of 38, with an impressive title collection of five successive Champions C1 and eight La Liga titles. With Di Stefano's great contributions, he was not outspoken in pointing out that he was the one who raised Real.
On the day of joining Real, Ronaldo is a player of extreme heat. He followed the ball in every situation, just like Rafael Nadal. Then Di Stefano came and said, "Hey kid, run low if you do not want to be exhausted in the next few years." Di Stefano has also told Raul Gonzalez, some of the other seven great Real, so that "ring" play ball top for a long time.
The experience was drawn by Di Stefano himself. In the play, he was compared with the platinum arrows by the sluggish ball speed through the enemy defense. Of course, Di Stefano did not perform well for 90 minutes, he chose the right time and then to finish the blow.
Back to Ronaldo, if Pele praised Di Stefano as the most comprehensive player in football history, the Portuguese superstar was no less. He hit perfectly good to both feet and head, possessing utopian jumps and electric speed. But, more importantly, like Di Stefano, Ronaldo knows how to distribute strength and choose the right moment to shine.
Thus, the Portuguese superstar is following the legendary Argentineans take Real reach new heights.
