It was nuts. And it has been voted as the best goal in Europe for the 2017-18 season.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s mind-boggling leap and overhead kick to score for his former club Real Madrid against his current club, Juventus, in the UEFA Champions League quarterfinal was a beauty.

Yes, I can hear you. Gareth Bale may be feeling slightly aggrieved as to why his stunning overhead kick goal for Real in the final against Liverpool didn’t win this award.
Watch Ronaldo’s magic moment below once again for good measure, as well as the goals voted in third and second place, as the Portuguese superstar received 56.7 percent of the overall UEFA vote.
Thanks to everyone who voted for me. Will never forget that moment, specially the reaction of the fans in the stadium. #UEFA Goal of the Season #SpecialMoment pic.twitter.com/9teapgD9MW
