Cristiano Ronaldo's stunning overhead kick in the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals for Real Madrid against his current club Juventus has been voted as UEFA Goal of the Season.
Ronaldo's strike, which was applauded on the night by his opposing – and it turned out future – fans, topped the poll with nearly 200,000 of the total 346,915 votes.
He succeeds his new Juve colleague Mario Mandžukić, who won last year for goal against Madrid in the UEFA Champions League final, while Lionel Messi took the award in both 2014/15 and 2015/16.
The runner-up was Dimitri Payet's goal in Marseille's 5-2 UEFA Europa League defeat of RB Leipzig, while third place went to Eva Navarro's goal for Spain in their Women's U17 EURO final victory against Germany in Lithuania in May.

Ronaldo has a goodluck! it's after he left Madrid that i understand that millions of the supporters of Madrid are just Ronaldo's fans who are ready to go wherever he goes. But these people are really waiting to see what you will prove this season too. He did everything in style (goals,assists, jubilations). But i still doubt if he will be able to replicate what he did in the past in his new club because...let me chill
