Ronaldo's nightmare moment

The four-time Ballon d'Or winner has unquestionably been one of the finest players in the world since joining Real Madrid from Manchester United for £80m in 2009.

With the scores level at 1-1, Ronaldo had the perfect opportunity to give his team the lead in the 73rd minute from just three yards out.

On his left foot, he somehow put his finish wide of the post - it will go down as one of the worst misses of his career.

It's worth noting that Ronaldo did score the winner just minutes later, firing home brilliantly into the bottom corner.

Fans could barely believe the Portuguese goal machine managed to miss.

Karim Benzema had initially given Madrid the lead in the first half only to see Getafe equalise through a Marcos Llorente own goal.

All will be forgiven regarding Ronaldo's shocking miss following his brilliant 85th minute winner which finally got him off the mark for the season in La Liga.

It was the first time Ronaldo and Benzema started together this season - and, with years of experience playing alongside one another, they linked up brilliantly throughout the game.
