In the 42nd minute of Juventus’ Champions League second-leg tie against Lyon, the Turin outfit were granted a solid opportunity after being awarded a penalty.
Memphis Depay, who actually opened the scoring for Lyon from the spot this evening, was deemed to have handled the ball in his attempts to block a free-kick from Barcelona-bound Miralem Pjanic.
Ronaldo was completely ice-cold as he stood on the edge of the box and waited for the referee’s whistle before confidently tucking the ball into the back of the net.
Take a look at the five-time Ballon d’Or winner’s spot-kick below:
