Video: Cristiano Ronaldo Scores Amazing Back-Heel Goal Against Hungary

Cristiano Ronaldo isn’t the highest-paid athlete in the world for nothing. On Wednesday during Portugal’s all-important Euro 2016 match with Hungary, Ronaldo found his team trailing 2-1 early in the second half. Well that didn’t last thanks to the Real Madrid star.

The 31-year-old used the back of his right heel to re-direct the ball past Hungarian keeper Gabor Kiraly for a 50th minute tally. Check it out:
