Though this final will always be remembered for Cristiano Ronaldo’s towering header which won the game in extra time, it’s worth recalling some of the great work that he did during the first 90 minutes of this ‘El Clasico.’

His work rate and desire were never better evidenced than in the first half as he looked to help Los Blancos gain a foothold against their fiercest rivals.

Chasing back towards his own area to defend, he picked up the ball, turned in towards Gerard Pique, who had inexplicably moved upfield and beat him with ease. David Villa was wrong-footed by a wonderful feint and he was away.

Pedro and Dani Alves – neither a slouch when it comes to pace – were left in Ronaldo’s slipstream as he bobbed and weaved his way towards the danger zone.

Felled by Adriano as a last resort, it was a rudimentary end to a wonderful piece of skill.
