Sometimes even the best can't help but channel their inner Sunday League player.

Cristiano Ronaldo had us all in complete awe in the last round of the Champions League when he scored a sensational overhead kick in the first leg against Juventus, but he had us all in stitches with his gaffe in the semi-final first leg against Bayern Munich tonight.

The five time Ballon d'Or was very quiet in the 2-1 win at the Allianz but when he played a quick one-two with substitute Marco Asensio in the early minutes of the second half, things looked to be opening up and you thought the net was about to bulge.

However, Ronaldo got it horribly wrong, seeing his poorly struck shot go out for a throw-in.

The Portuguese man had social media hysterics with his comical effort:

Ronaldo's shot just now reminded me of the Pele Was Shite segment on Fantasy Football.

Was gonna say Ronaldo's shot hit the corner flag - it was that bad. But that would be too kind. It actually missed the corner flag by some distance and went out for a throw.
