Ronaldo endured another frustrating game at the Bernabeu

The most crucial point to discuss. The Real Madrid talisman endured another frustrating night though Real Madrid easily cruised past Eibar with a comfortable 3-0 win.

His performance against Tottenham had given fans the hope of his redemption. But, the display against Eibar proved the Real Madrid superstar hasn't yet hit the running ground.

Ronaldo had five shots on target, more than anyone on the pitch. Yet, the Portuguese skipper failed to make his way past the goal line. Goalkeeper Marko Dmitrovic was well up to the mark in denying him a return to goalscoring ways.

The Portuguese captain has only one league goal to his credit, compared to Messi's eleven. This has been, by far, the greatest difference between himself and Lionel Messi that he has ever seen in his career.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the stark favourite to lift the FIFA Men's Best Player award in London on Monday. However, the lacklustre display against Eibar has raised many eyebrows, concerning his capability of winning the award despite having a brilliant season with Real Madrid.
