Ronaldo's overhead kick wins UEFA Goal of the Season

Cristiano Ronaldo's amazing overhead kick for Real Madrid against Juventus has won the UEFA Goal of the Season award.

Ronaldo was nominated as the Champions League representative over Gareth Bale, who struck a similarly acrobatic effort in Madrid's final win over Liverpool.

The Portugal captain succeeds new Juventus team-mate Mario Mandzukic as the winner of a prize which Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi has won twice.

UEFA confirmed Ronaldo was the runaway winner of the award, with the 33-year-old's remarkable April 3 effort receiving 197,496 votes, over five times as many as any other goal.

Dimitri Payet came second for his dribble and finish in Marseille's defeat of RB Leipzig in the quarter-finals of the Europa League.
