From agony to ecstasy, it was certainly a night of mixed emotions for Cristiano Ronaldo.The Portuguese superstar’s final lasted just 25 minutes after he was taken off on a stretcher, in tears following a clumsy challenge from Dimitri Payet.

After receiving treatment on his damaged knee, Ronaldo reemerged in extra time to take his place alongside his teammates where is manic mannerisms were, frankly speaking, far more entertaining than the match that was being played out in front of millions of viewers worldwide.

Patrolling the touchline, bellowing instructions at his compatriots, at times it looked as if Ronaldo had taken a leap into football management and replaced head coach Fernando Santos.
