GLORY, GLORY MAN UNITED!

It's sheer beauty.
Cristiano Ronaldo's most recent goal is one of the most brilliant goals I've ever seen. This past week Manchester United played against FC Porto for the quarter finals of the Champions League. Manchester United beat FC Porto with this amazing shot. It's a fantastic outcome for a nearly impossible win, because FC Porto's a wonderful team and the match took place on Portuguese soil.
The goal was taken six minutes into the match and shot from forty yards out! While such a distance and circumstances may seem to classify it as a "Hail Mary Shot," the execution was not hurried or by any means lucky. Ronaldo's control guided the ball into the opposite top corner of the goal, leaving the goalie no chance to stop it. Now go to this Youtube cite and watch the first minute and you will understand why this goal deserves a blog dedicated to it's brilliance.
Becky, this would be an appropriate time to sing the song I taught you: "Glory, glory Man United"
