Cristiano Ronaldo named Best Player in Europe

Cristiano Ronaldo has been named UEFA’s Best Player in Europe for the second time after winning the Champions League and Euro 2016 last season.

The Real Madrid forward beat teammate Gareth Bale and Atletico Madrid striker Antoine Griezmann in the voting.

Ronaldo, 31, scored the winning penalty for Real in the Champions League final against Atletico and captained Portugal to Euro 2016 glory in July.

Very happy and proud to win such a special award. Thank you to my team mates from Real Madrid and Portugal! ✌🏼️🔝👍🏼 pic.twitter.com/vR61LXyW9o
