2011-12 was one of Ronaldo’s most productive seasons; the Portuguese genius scored a ridiculous 60 goals in all competitions for Real Madrid that season, and undoubtedly one of his best came in an away fixture against Osasuna in March 2012.

With 36 minutes gone, Ronaldo controlled an awkward ball from a teammate around 35 yards out and took a couple of touches forward before unleashing a thunderbolt of a right-footed shot that flew into the top right-hand corner of the net, leaving Osasuna’s goalkeeper with absolutely no chance of making a save.

How had Ronaldo struck the ball so hard and so cleanly? His celebration gave a clue away to his own explanation; ‘CR7’ rolled up his shorts and pointed to his flexed quadriceps muscle as his astonished teammates mobbed him. This was an iconic celebration for a truly iconic goal.
