With Juve already 1-0 up, Ronaldo thought he had doubled his side's lead in the second half when he latched on to Juan Cuadrado's pass and arrowed a shot from just outside the box towards the United goal.

It looked destined for the top corner but De Gea was equal to it, diving high and brilliantly turning the ball over his crossbar with one hand.
