As Ronaldo fires Real Madrid into Champions League semi-finals, here are the top five pressure penalties ever
Cristiano Ronaldo needed the heating on full blast as he finally managed to get his head down and get some sleep last night.
After all, the ice running through the Real Madrid icon’s veins needed to thaw out somehow.
Talk about keeping your cool when those around you are losing theirs. Controversy, a four minute delay, red cards and the club’s historic treble Champions League hopes all on your one kick.

Miss and the pendulum which had just, somehow, swung your way would be heading back in the other direct just as quickly as it arrived.
Pressure? What pressure? Ronaldo fired home the stoppage time penalty with the nonchalance of a training ground kick about. It could create club football history.
But what other 12-yard wonders have there been when the heat is really on? Let’s take a look at five of our favourites.
Beware of the Drog
It was written in the stars in 2012 that Chelsea would be European champions. Having already dragged them back from the brink, Didier Drogba had the chance to create history against Bayern Munich in their own backyard. He did and an icon was born.
Panenka perfection
Cheeky Czechoslovakian Antonín Panenka scored the greatest penalty chip of all time – and we’ll never forget it. He won the Euro 1976 final against West Germany in the most laid back way. Some 42 years on, we still all know about ‘the Panenka’.
Terrier has bite
Christopher Schindler isn’t a household name by any means. Even after playing in the Premier League for a season, he’s gone under the radar. But last May, his one penalty kick was worth around £200m to Huddersfield Town as the club were promoted in the Championship play-off final against Reading.
Wembley wonder: Huddersfield had a big pressure penalty last May
Bold Brehme
West Germany v Argentina was not a classic. It looked to be going the distance until the referee pointed to the spot five minutes from time. Andreas Brehme knew if he scored, the Germans would be world champions. He slotted it away with ease as if he was in the park with his pals.
Grosso has it large
Not often are left-backs the big heroes. Fabio Grosso is the exception to the rule. His World Cup final spot kick for Italy against France in 2006 was Ronaldo-esque. Top bins, top class and the full-back created history.
