Stats show Ronaldo is the second worst free-kick taker in Europe's top 5 leagues this season as he never scored a single free-kick since he joined Juventus.
Ronaldo moved to Juventus during the World Cup last summer, joining the Bianconeri from Real Madrid for a figure in the region of around €110m. Ronaldo's aim was to help the Old Lady complete the treble, winning the league, domestic cup and Champions League. However, we are now in April and we also now know that Juventus are not going to be the winners of either the Champions League or the Coppa Italia.
The Bianconeri have already confirmed their eighth successive scudetto but a Coppa elimination at the hands of Atalanta and a Champions League exit against Ajax has put a dampener on CR7's first season in Turin.
Additionally, an interesting piece of analysis from SofaScore shows that Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the worst free-kick takers in not only Italy but in the whole of Europe's top five leagues.
In fact, the only player with a worse record than Ronaldo is Frosinone's Camillo Ciano, with both he and Ronaldo having no goals from free-kicks in their attempts so far this season in Serie A.

Messi is like a sniper rifle, Ronaldo is like a machine gun... One relies solely on skill and accuracy, the other on repetition and its an understatement to say both had got the most out of their abilities and are very effective in their own ways!

No free kick goal dis season doesn't mean he is not a GOAT. And still I am not disrespecting Messi another GOAT both are best in their own way of playing. You cannot hate both of them and love football at the same time. We will cry after they will retire. SO ENJOY THEM😊💗

That's why it is called "stats". It is showing you that Ronaldo is already getting diminished. This stats is only predicting what next season might be like for Juve and Ronaldo. Analysis like this help managers make better decisions. So Allegri can decide, from this analysis, that Ronaldo must not take freekicks anymore.

Even Ronaldo has more free-kicks in club side than messi, same at his national team. When it comes to best free-kick goals, Messi was not seen in the top 20 Ronaldo placed In No7 Roberto Carlos No1 So this update is as useless as Barcelona fans praising someone that has failed so many times in Argentina but only excels where competition is easy.

Pjanic is the 2nd best free kick taker after Messi but cos of CR7 image, Juve gave it to him instead even though his free kick record is actually not even like top 20 overall whereas Pjanic comes into top 10-15 of all time... What people fail to understand about Ronaldo is that his accuracy/Conversion rate outside the box is actually horrible....
