| Cristiano Ronaldo may have, by his own extremely high standards, struggled for goals in La Liga recently – but he put that right against lowly Granada, scoring five goals, including an eight-minute hat trick as Real Madrid crushed their opponents 9-1. | |
| Ronaldo reached 26 league goals in the 2-1 defeat to Valencia in January. Real Madrid’s stuttering form, coupled with a two-game suspension, meant that he added five goals to that tally in three months – before matching that total in 90 minutes. He has also moved back level with Lionel Messi in the record books, with both players having scored 24 La Liga hat-tricks. | |
| By scoring his 28th Real Madrid hat-trick, Ronaldo has equalled the record set by Alfredo di Stéfano. In scoring five goals from open play in one match, Ronaldo joins an exclusive list of Real Madrid players, including Eulogio Martínez, Ferenc Puskás, Hans Krankl, Bebeto and Fernando Morientes, to have achieved the feat. | |
| Ronaldo has now scored 36 goals in this league campaign, and is the only player in La Liga history to score more than 25 goals in six seasons. His haul against Granada leaves him one goal away from 300 Real Madrid goals, achieved in 287 games. Real Madrid may have smashed the world transfer record by spending £80m to bring Cristiano Ronaldo to the Spanish capital in 2009, but his goal output since then has shown he was worth every penny. | |
| Here is a rundown of his remarkable goalscoring numbers: | |
