You have to watch Cristiano Ronaldo’s amazing, hat-trick completing free kick

All because of his magic thighs.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s thighs came out and Spain’s lead went into hiding. A free kick in the 87th minute tied their World Cup group stage game, earning Portugal a 3-3 draw against Spain, and it was mesmerizing.

I have no idea how this man’s oversized leg boulders whaled the crap out of ball hard enough and with so much finesse that it’d curve around a miserable-looking wall of defenders who knew what was coming next. But he did it.

I know Ronaldo is great and all, but I think we know who really deserves credit.

That’s right, his exposed, bronze thighs that made this all possible.

When they came roaring out, everyone knew.

ATTENTION ALL FUTURE CRISTIANO RONALDO OPPONENTS: DON’T LET THE THIGHS COME OUT.

That’s when it’s all over.

Learn from Spain’s mistake.
