The Serie A side overturned a two-goal first-leg deficit by beating Atletico Madrid 3-0 to secure their spot in the quarter-finals. Ronaldo stepped up to the pate with two towering headers to level the tie before netting a late penalty to complete his hat-trick and a stunning fightback. “It was an extraordinary performance from everyone, a really special night,” Matuidi told Sky Sport Italia. I am very happy here, as we have many quality players, a very strong team and Cristiano Ronaldo , who is the best in the world.
