(Baonghean.vn) - In the 64th minute, when Juventus's score was 0-1 in favor of Real Madrid, goalkeeper Buffon could only stand and watch as C. Ronaldo jumped up and made a beautiful hook. After the match, Juventus' coach and Buffon were convinced and could not justify the defeat.

Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane shook his head in disbelief as Ronaldo scored a stunning goal, while Juventus fans applauded in amazement. The Portuguese superstar responded to the praise with a gesture of gratitude.

"I don't know what Cristiano's final goal is in the history of football, but it's certainly an extraordinary goal. You can only congratulate him for what he's doing. However, I was disappointed about the third goal, because at that moment we could have taken the chance and regained a little advantage. Now it's not possible anymore," coach Allegri said at a press conference.

Coach Allegri added: "Real Madrid, despite having a three-goal advantage, have made things difficult for themselves. You cannot win three Champions League titles in four years. As for us, what we need to do now is focus on Serie A and then think about the decisive match against Real Madrid.

Ronaldo has become the first player to score in 10 consecutive Champions League games. Ronaldo is showing that he is a real phenomenon in Europe's most prestigious tournament. Veteran goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon was not surprised to see Ronaldo produce a spectacular finish.

"His best? No, I think he was a normal Ronaldo today like any other. Messi and he can be compared to Maradona and Pele because of what they did this season. We made a few mistakes, but it can cost a lot.

We feel really disappointed because maybe we won't be strong enough and qualified to go through. It's a real shame, but facing a high-class team you have to be calm and I congratulate them, because objectively they are a stronger team," said Buffon.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid head coach Zidane expressed concern when he did not have captain Sergio Ramos for the second leg due to his yellow card in this match.

"It was a great game, it's not easy to win 3-0 here. There were times when we felt the pressure that Juventus put on us, but that's because you have to play here, away. However, we always know how to cause problems for opponents.

Cristiano is in good form at the moment. His teammates are very happy. We need to enjoy this feeling of happiness, but then think about the difficult game next week because Juventus will not give up," the French coach modestly said after ending the victory party in Turin./.
