In fact, in the process of Ronaldo completing that goal, whether it was the last defender Ramon, or the referee at the time, Torres, in a way, they were all helpers. Ramon himself recalled afterwards that before Ronaldo burst into the penalty area with the ball, he had the opportunity to shovel the Brazilian striker from behind. The rules and the scale of punishment at that time, even if Ramon shoved Ronaldo down, would not be punished very harshly, but he did not do so.

The player, who was playing for Compostela at the time, admitted. He did have the idea of putting down the other person at that moment, and his teammates thought he should do after the game. But now, Ronaldo was right to score a goal. There needs to be such a famous scene on the football field, and there needs to be such a heroic player. And Ramon is also very clear that everyone can't stop Ronaldo, who is at the peak of his career.

In addition to Ramon, referee Torres is also one of the goalscoring "heroes". It is reported that when Ronaldo dribbled past, Compostela's players had begun to pull him, and the player's running posture had become hesitant and almost fell. In this case, Torres could have blown fouls from defenders, but he believed Ronaldo would not fall and chose to let the game continue. It turned out that it was Torres's right decision that made such a great goal.

Of course, not everyone can applaud this goal, especially the Compostela player who directly became the background board. After Ronaldo scored, Nike quickly bought the rights to the ball from La Liga and made it an ad for worldwide broadcast. Under the "guidance" of the lawyer, the 7 players who defended the goal directly sued Nike and Ronaldo in court.

However, these 7 players do not all want financial compensation, such as goalkeeper Fernando does not want to appear in the advertising lens himself, and does not want portrait fees at all, he just wants to sue Nike. But their appeals were dismissed one by one, and despite the ongoing appeals, the court made a final decision, rejecting the players' claims.
