Cristiano Ronaldo had already made history by becoming the first player to find the net in each group stage fixture of a Champions League season. By doing so in with an excellent shot from the edge of the box after 12 minutes, the Portuguese forward also equalled Lionel Messi's record of 60 goals in the group stage of Europe's elite competition.
However, Ronaldo felt that he was harshly denied a goal in the 79th minute that would have seen him eclipse Messi's tally of goals scored in the group stages. A corner was flicked on by the head of Casemiro - or so it had seemed - before Ronaldo blasted it in, only to be flagged offside.
