The Portuguese superstar left one unfortunate Deportivo defender embarrassed in Saturday's 2-0 win with this spectacular nutmeg.

For Cristiano Ronaldo, embarrassing defenders comes with ease, and is done regularly. This is an expectation that comes with being one of the, if not the best attacker in the world.

Center backs and full backs alike fear him, strikers wish to emulate him, but only a few do. An agile player, the Portuguese ace boasts some of the best footwork in the business, rivaled only by Barcelona's Neymar.

Therefore, nutmegging an opposing player is just another day in the office for the former Manchester United winger. However, what the three-time Ballon d'Or winner pulled on Deportivo La Coruna captain Manuel Pablo left the whole world memorized.

That is if you are NOT a fan of the club from Galicia.

Starting in Saturday's clash with the one-time Liga BBVA winners, Ronaldo brought Pablo to his knees, literally, with a jaw-dropping elastico nutmeg on the 39-year-old Spaniard.

Deep into the first half of the Santiago Bernabeu encounter, as Ronaldo was initiating a swift attack from the left-hand side of the pitch, he feigned to go in one direction before dragging the ball between the the Deportivo skipper's legs to dash off in the other way.

Manuel Pablo, off course, lost his balance and tumbled as Cristiano skipped past him. Watch the vine below.

Leading the game 1-0 at that particular moment, Ronaldo went on to assist the second goal of the night for Los Blancos, bagged by Karim Benzema, but failed to make the score sheet himself.
