Ronaldo's plane crashes in Barcelona

Cristiano Ronaldo's private plane crashed during a landing at
Barcelona's El Prat airport on Monday. No injuries were reported.

Ronaldo, who was in Dortmund at the time as Real Madrid were preparing
for what resulted in a 2-2 Champions League group stage draw against
Borussia Dortmund, was not on the plane at the time of the crash.

The Real Madrid forward leases out the Gulfstream G200, for which he
paid a reported €19 million, to corporate clients when he is not using
it.

According to Spanish media reports, the plane's landing gear broke
upon descent and the plane, which seats eight passengers and a crew of
two people, ran off the runway upon landing.
