Cristiano Ronaldo tried to unleash his own bit of brilliance in the 65th minute, going for a bicycle kick strike in the Barcelona box. He missed and momentarily injured himself, coming down awkwardly on his arm and shoulder. He got back up after a minute and continued. Good thing for Madrid he did.
Barcelona vs. Real Madrid, 2012 El Clasico: Ronaldo equalizes for Madrid
A minute later, Ronaldo tore the Barcelona defense apart making a perfect run right through the middle of the defense receiving a perfectly place pass from Mesut Özil. Ronaldo just abused Adriano and once he was one-on-one with Victor Valdes, you just knew he’d score...and he did.
Nothing fancy, just a solid strike that Valdes had no hope to deal with and Madrid just like that equalized the match again at 2-2.
At this point, it's turning in to a "anything you can do, I can do better" contest between Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
Ronaldo was back on the ground again a couple minutes after the goal, appearing to struggle with the shoulder that he fell on with his bicycle attempt. He’s still in the match, but he’s still grabbing at his shoulder trying to work out whatever is bothering him.
