Cristiano Ronaldo proves he's a football genius by missing England vs Portugal

The Real Madrid and Portugal star is so damn good at football, he even impresses when he's not playing

Cristiano Ronaldo really is something special.

World class footballers tend to enhance their reputations with their achievements on the football pitch. With three Ballon d'Ors, three Champions Leagues and approximately 194,975 goals on his CV, Real Madrid's main man has certainly done that.

But CR7™ is not just a world class footballer. He's a footballer SO good, even when he's being rested by his national team and off on holiday in Ibiza, a game's events mean he can STILL impress.

Take England's dour 1-0 win over Portugal.

As internationals go, it was a non-event: dull, uneventful and largely pointless. And although Cristiano was a long way away, on holiday in Ibiza, he STILL had a great night.

Here's why:

While some people were getting booted in the side in the head…

…Cristiano was feeling the beautiful fresh water from his boat's outdoor shower wash over his sun-kissed scalp.

While some of his pals were sitting on the floor feeling sorry for themselves after doing something remarkably daft…

…Cristiano was sitting on his boat, soaking up the sun and feeling very pleased with himself.
