Cristiano Ronaldo opened the scoring for Real Madrid in the second half to make it 0-1 against Paris Saint-Germain in the second leg of the Champions League round of 16.
Cristiano Ronaldo came up trumps for Real Madrid once again, proving he is the man for a big game.
After a goalless first half, Ronaldo lit up the tie early in the second half, scoring in the 52nd minute of the game.
The goal came as a result of some smart work from Marco Asensio, who raced into PSG's half on the counter attack. He fed Lucas Vazquez, who put a far-post cross into the box, and Ronaldo buried the chance with a powerful header.
The first goal of the game came as a hammer blow to PSG and their rowdy fans, who were then 4-1 down on aggregate, and had also conceded the dreaded away goal, which left them needing to score 3 to take the game to extra time.
