4 Champions League Records Ronaldo set against Atletico Madrid

#2 Most headers scored in the Champions League era

Juventus v Club de Atletico Madrid - UEFA Champions League Round of 16: Second Leg

Although Ronaldo is a highly versatile player, famed for his iconic knuckle ball free kicks, dazzling skill, blistering pace, shot power, and movement, his heading ability is right up there with the very best.

Cristiano Ronaldo's jumping ability is frankly absurd and it is often cited as being able to jump higher than the average NBA basketball player.

His ability to not only jump higher than all other players isn't the only thing impressive about his heading prowess, but also his fearlessness to head the ball where others would be too scared to.

Two of Ronaldo's goals against Atletico Madrid last night came from headers, with the third coming from a penalty.

In scoring his second goal to level the tie, Cristiano Ronaldo became the first player to score 22 headed goals in the Champions League era.

Although Ronaldo possesses virtually every Champions League record in the book, he will certainly not complain about adding this one to his collection.

This is a sweet record as it shows why he is often regarded as the greatest goalscorer ever, because not only does he score all the time, but the diversity of goals he produces is unsurpassed by anyone.
