And how could we ever miss out on the Portuguese superstar? He is most definitely a natural when it comes to free kicks and has been during his United days and still is even now with Real Madrid. In the year 2008 when Manchester United walked away with the Champions League Title, the Red Devils were playing against Portsmouth, at Old Trafford, who won the FA Cup that same year. It was on 30th January that the famous CR7 scored the brilliant 30 yard free kick that has managed to put him on this list. He opened the score 9 minutes into the game and took a free kick just 3 minutes after. The ball went straight through and landed on the left hand corner of David James, who was left standing still. This goal is definitely one of the best free kicks in Premier League history.
