There are a few different schools of thought when it comes to forwards staying on their feet as they move into a dangerous area of the pitch.

His Atletico Madrid side are taking on Barcelona in a huge game this afternoon, and we came close to a flash point between the striker and his former teammate Marc-Andre ter Stegen.
