Cristiano Ronaldo just scored one of the finest goals of his professional career, smacking a perfectly-timed bicycle kick past Gianluigi Buffon to give Real Madrid a 2-0 lead over Juventus in this Champions League quarter-final first-leg tilt.

The goal was Ronaldo's second of the night and was followed up shortly after with a third scored by Marcelo, giving Real Madrid plenty of leeway against the Old Lady in this matchup, due to the wide away-goal margin.

But this audacious strike will be the main talking point from the match, despite a red card to Paulo Dybala further compounding Juventus' misery.
