Despite Real Madrid having won the tenth Champions League title, it seems that all the attention was focused on Cristiano Ronaldo and his performance yesterday night. The Portuguese did not shine and was locked down by Gabi and Godin for most of the game.
In fact, had CR7 not scored the penalty-kick, arguably not needed in light of the result, his, would have been a rather forgettable performance. But former Manchester United star always finds a way to leave a mark.

I'm just saying @Cristiano hasn't mentioned @ManUtd once but being the side chick, they're like "There goes my babyyyy, he misses us really"

After los Blancos managed la decima a lot of fans, especially from Man United, began reminiscing about past victories with the Portuguese. And not much else is left to do for the Red Devils’ supporters, especially since the joy for a Community Shield faded quickly.

Interestingly, the Portuguese winger has repeated the incredible season he had with United in 2008, by winning again Golden Boot award, the Balon d’Or, and the Champions League.

Nobody can stop the perfect machine that is Cristiano Ronaldo
But CR7 is not easily satisfied and his winning mentality will surely point his focus to the next big trophy: the World Cup.
