Former Germany international Mesut Özil has recalled his almost telepathic understanding with Portuguese icon Cristiano Ronaldo on the pitch during his time at Real Madrid.
Ronaldo and Özil played together for three full seasons at Real Madrid before the former midfielder moved to Arsenal in the summer of 2013.
They shared the field for 149 games and both players scored 39 goals with Ronaldo scoring 32 of them.

During that period they won three titles together, including one in La Liga.
During those three seasons Ronaldo made a total of 164 appearances, scoring an astonishing 168 goals in 164 games in all competitions, scoring at least 53 goals in each season.
Özil has since retired from active football and has now spoken about his understanding on the pitch with the Portuguese football icon.
According to Madrid Xtra, he said: "Cristiano Ronaldo understood me very well on the pitch.
"I gave him a lot of assists and he scored a lot of goals. "
