Cristiano Ronaldo's Best Goal Scoring Strategy Revealed By Former Teammate

Cristiano Ronaldo’s former Real Madrid teammate has revealed the most efficient goal scoring position the Portuguese star likes to start in the field.

Toni Kroos is one of the players who got the chance to play with Ronaldo at Real Madrid before he made the historic move to Juventus in 2018. The pair played alongside each other at the Bernabeu for five good years. Evidently, that was enough time for Kroos to figure out how “CR7” does his magic.

In an interview with The Athletic, Kroos divulged Ronaldo’s preference is to create his move from the left so that he can cut inside on his formidable right foot.

“His (Ronaldo) favorite position was on the left,” Kroos revealed.

“He sometimes played through the middle or next to another striker, but he loved starting from the left and cutting inside best. It came with the freedom of not having to track back all the time. Almost without fail, he justified having that freedom,” Kroos added.

According to the Real Madrid star, Ronaldo learned to master playing from the said position and has made himself almost invincible. Even though there were times that Kroos and their other teammates had to do more running to back Ronaldo’s play, it was all worth it as the legendary forward often paid their sweat off with goals.

“But we also knew that it was worth working that little bit more for him, because he would score two at the other end. He was free in his movement and always paid us back with goals.

During his stint at Real Madrid, Ronaldo scored a total of 450 goals from 348 appearances. He also led the club to four Champions League titles making him a Real Madrid hero even to this day.

Now that Ronaldo is already in his mid 30’s, many are still at awe with the way he seemingly returned to his Real Madrid days. He has broken multiple records for Juventus and now has an evident advantage over Lionel Messi in the European Golden Shoe standings. In fact, he could even surpass Messi’s Champion’s League hat-trick record.
