Best Tweets: Cristiano Ronaldo’s bizarre free-kick preparation has everyone talking

As Portugal played Uruguay in their World Cup last-16 clash on Saturday night, there was one big talking point for the European side.

Just what on earth was going on with Cristiano Ronaldo as he lined up his free-kicks?

We know from his stunning goal in the 3-3 against Spain in the group stage that CR7 can bang one in from a dead ball – but does he have to look quite so ridiculous while doing so?

It wasn’t a great first half all round for one of the most famous players on the planet.
