CRISTIANO RONALDO has taken 28 free-kicks for Juventus… and missed every, single one of them.
The Portuguese legend, 34, has always been horrifically wayward with his free-kicks – but the occasional world-class strike has left fans with a short-term memory.
Think that last-gasp wonderstrike against Spain at the 2018 World Cup in Russia…
But Ronaldo has now missed, badly, on all 28 of his free-kicks since joining the Serie A champions.
In fact, most of his set-piece efforts – after going through his painful pre-strike routine, hiking up his shorts and posing dramatically – simply trundle into the wall.
FourFourTwo posted a video compilation showing all 28 of his Juventus misses – and it's an absolute riot.
The near-two-minute clip was captioned: "Maybe let someone else have a go?"
The likes of Paulo Dybala and Miralem Pjanic both have a sweet set-piece on them – and the Argentine scored a long-range beauty in the Champions League midweek to prove it.
As the Juve squad bicker over who should be taking the next one, let's run through how each of the 28 free-kicks unfolded…
1. Saved, straight at the keeper from a stupidly narrow angle.
2. Hit the shins of the wall.
3. Trickled wide, far too far out to genuinely believe you can score.
4. Straight into the wall.
5. Thudding into the toes of the wall.
6. Great low, diving save from the keeper, to be fair.
7. Long range, daft angle, straight at keeper… there's a theme here.
8. Into the wall and wide… again.
9. Wall. Hit a player's head this time though, so getting closer.
10. Shaved the studs of the wall.
11. Weak and straight at the keeper.
12. Straight into the wall from just 19 yards out.
