Cristiano Ronaldo wins Goal 50

Cristiano Ronaldo wins Goal 50
Cristiano Ronaldo has won the Goal 50 award for the world’s best footballer after a magnificent 2013-14 season.

The Real Madrid forward claims the title for the third time in recognition of an incredible campaign during which he led his club to a long-awaited 10th Champions League crown.

The 29-year-old, who also bagged the Copa del Rey, struck 51 goals in all competitions for his club.

He shared the European Golden Shoe with Luis Suarez and earlier this year picked up the 2013 Fifa Ballon d'Or.

After receiving the trophy, Ronaldo said: "It’s a very big honour for me to have been chosen as the best player. I’m sincerely grateful.

"I’m convinced that I wouldn’t have been able to win this award without the constant support from all the people at Real Madrid."

The Goal 50 is regarded as one of the most credible and respected awards in sport because it is chosen by the world’s biggest football website.
