UCL 2016/17: Real Madrid 4-2 Bayern Munich - The Best & The Worst Players

Best – Cristiano Ronaldo

Cometh the hour, cometh the man!

There is no denying that Cristiano Ronaldo benefitted from some absolutely shambolic refereeing during the game but that doesn’t take anything away from the Portuguese – who was head and shoulders above everyone else on the pitch.

With Bayern leading 1-0 in the second leg and looking good to add to their tally, Ronaldo headed home a Casemiro cross to bring his side on level terms. The 31-year-old completed the perfect hat-trick in extra-time when he first beat Neuer with a left-footed finish to put Madrid ahead before scoring from his right into an empty net after being setup brilliantly by the marauding Marcelo.

There have been questions asked about the 4-time Ballon d'Or winners form in recent months but he silenced his critics in style as he netted 5 goals against the German champions over two legs, en route to becoming the first player in history to score 100 Champions League goals. Ronaldo is a winner through and through and that is what he did against Bayern Munich, he helped his side win.
