Excellent strike! You can see he felt his coming from behind and was preparing to launch his left to the chin.
And then the post-strike movement....brilliant. Best striker ever.

cr showing he is completely dependent on service. He doesn't create chances for himself, like Messi does. Or Neymar. No service, he disappears.
Just makes it even more mind boggling how some say he's "more complete" than Messi.

These people kinda warp the concept to fit cristiano.
Like, they say, cristiano is stronger, faster, jumps higher hence more complete.

Not even Power, what is the point of show muscle when you are on the floor all the time? Messi is stronger than him cause his strength is in his legs and 6.2 defenders cant bully him off the ball.
Ronaldo used to be complete in ways he could score, headers, long shots, freekicks, backheels, one vs one's, tap ins due to positioning, volleys etc. But a lot of these aspects are fading away. And where he used to be only hyper inzaghi in big games he has now turned into that in almost all games.
He sacrificed so much of his game to keep up with Messi in goal stats that its now hurting him as a footballer.
Footbal world doesnt stand still either, Neymar already has overtaken him and if its a not failed season for Madrid ( no cl/liga) it will be the end of him since he cant get away with the shit he pulls without scoring 50+ goals a season.
Madridista's dont give credit either, he will be easily blamed and cast out.

This. His RM performances under Benitez make him look much more similar to the Portugal NT Cristiano I remember from the WC. The attacking style of Ancelotti combined with the quality of players he had around him, and of course the fact that everyone was looking for him to finish made him collect goals like crazy. But he won't create much on his own, and you can't blame all of that on the role or position he plays either. He sees the ball a lot outside of the box as well and has plenty of chances to create something, but it rarely amounts to much. His few attempts at initiating dribles yesterday were for instance stopped very easily.

Bingo! Read that on other teams forums as well which is great. It's not just Barca fans realizing the decline of Ronaldo and the rise of Neymar. And what is it going to do to Christiano's morale when Messi finishes this season with more goals than him? Even with all the time Messi missed.

Here in Serbia most people (exept Madridistas) see Ronaldo as someone who simply doesn't exist in big, important matches. And mocking on his name to Penaldo or Christina... after last night's humiliation and invisibileness of Ronaldo, everybody here sang an old song, sad balade "Kristina" with refrain "Kristina gde si sad, dal' si nestala? (Christina, where are you now, have you disapered?)":
