Cristiano Ronaldo did it again for Real Madrid, stepping forward to score a penalty and inflicting another devastating loss in a Champions League final on rival Atletico Madrid. On Saturday, Ronaldo's decisive spot kick in a shootout gave Real Madrid a 5-3 victory on penalties, following a 1-1 draw after extra time. This time, it was Real Madrid instead of Atletico in the role of long-time leader giving up a late equalizer. Atletico was left with bitter memories of its third loss in a European Cup or Champions League final. I was confident,” said Ronaldo, who won his third Champions League title.
