And on the 21/6/10. Against North Korea. Even when rumor suggest that Kim Jong II came up with a tactical plane to beat Cristiano Ronaldo’s team, Ronaldo had a great game. He broke loose on the Korean penalty area, and the keeper tried to tackle the ball from Ronaldo. The ball went up in the air (away from the keeper) before Ronaldo controlled it with a small of his back into the net!! And on the 21/6/10. Against North Korea.
