Cristiano Ronaldo trailing in Lionel Messi's wake after mimicking celebration
The defining image of the prior ‘Clasico'in the league last April was the sight of Lionel Messi defiantly showing the rear of his shirt to the baying Real Madrid crowd after burying the winning goal to stay a fascinating contest 3-2 for Barcelona.
The goal, also the Argentine's 500th strike for his club, proved futile in Barca's quest for Madrid, who still won an initial La Liga crown in five years, but has already established an astonishing knock on impact on the existing campaign.Cristiano Ronaldo, locked in a compelling struggle with Messi for the title to be the very best player on earth, replicated Messi's celebration four months later when he scored for Real against Barca in the Nou Camp in the Spanish Super Cup, but his actions had unintended consequences.
