But the five-time Ballon d’Or winner was frustrated on the night as Thorgan Hazard’s wondergoal earned a 1-0 win to send Roberto Martinez’s side through to the quarters.

So desperate was Ronaldo, 36, to claim the accolade, he chased every single ball from the get-go.

But he ended up being left red-faced just before the end of the first half as he tried to close down Courtois.

The speedster looked to force a mistake out of the Real Madrid stopper by putting him under pressure.

But the cool, calm and collected Courtois effortlessly knocked the ball past the Portuguese legend to maintain possession.

And fans watching the game across the world ended up having a field day.

One said: “Courtois sending Ronaldo back to Turin.”
