Cristiano Ronaldo The Robot Boots Up And Then Does What He Does

Cristiano Ronaldo 4.0 is up and running at Juventus Stadium. His age is 34, which typically alludes to ever-present bodily soreness and general feelings of lethargy, but Ronaldo 4.0 includes updates on foxiness in the box, elastico nutmegs and improvements on crushing the dreams of everyone else in European competition.

Here’s "He That Is More Machine Than Man" coming alive during the Champions League anthem, as he’s done time after time en route to scoring 126 UCL goals, including 65 in the knockout stages.

28 minutes after firing up, Ronaldo did exactly what you'd expect from a robot that's programmed to do goals — especially so since Ajax granted him a free header following Matthijs de Ligt’s decision to take out his own teammate.  

¡GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!

Unfortunately for Ronaldo, he's the only one of his kind. His 10 teammates are merely human, and they allowed Donny van de Beek to equalize only six minutes later.

¡GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!
