CRISTIANO RONALDO LIKES scoring goals. He likes to be the main man.

When you take that away from him, what has he got left?

(Except for the ridiculous talent, worldwide adulation, hundreds of millions of pounds, and good looks.)

Real Madrid were 2-0 up and cruising against Almeria last night when Alvaro Arbeloa slid in and got the final touch on what otherwise would have been Ronaldo’s 40th La Liga goal of the season.

These things happen — just ask David Nugent and Jermaine Defoe — but Ronaldo wasn’t happy.

Not one little bit.

Smashing the ball into the back of the net is one thing but that rueful shake of the head? That’s pure six-year-old stuff.

Madrid won 3-0 but Ronaldo didn’t score, so does it really count?
