Barcelona carried off the Spanishtitle, Champions League and Copa del Rey last season but Ronaldo played down any suggestion that Real could immediately replicate their bitter rivals' achievement.
In 2011 he won the Champions League again and also a third successive Spanishtitle, followed by success at the Club World Cup for a second time, winning a total of 13 trophies during his tenure.
Van der Sar saved well from Puyol as Barcelona dominated until the final whistle - and not even the most partisan Manchester United follower can doubt that Pep Guardiola deserved to round off a dream first season in charge by adding the Champions League to the La Liga title and the Spanish Cup.
He won the Champions League again last season and also a third successive Spanishtitle, followed by success at the Club World Cup for a second time in December 2011.
Trailing Barcelona by 11 points in the SpanishLeague with five games left, Real's only realistic hope for a title this season is when it hosts Atletico Madrid in the Copa del Rey final on May 17.
