Cristiano Ronaldo is a goalscoring machine, and he looked like his old self this Saturday when he bagged 5 goals in Real Madrid’s 6-0 rout of Espanyol playing away from home. The Portuguese who was yet to score a goal this season did so in brilliant fashion. He scored his 28th La Liga hat-trick and went on to beat Raul’s record of 228 league goals for the club. He managed to complete this feat in 203 appearances for Los Blancos.
Ronaldo has established himself as a consistent goalscorer since 2009 amassing a whopping 320 goals in all competitions for the Spanish side. Only in 2 seasons out of 6 so far has Ronaldo failed to breach the 50 goal mark in a season for Real Madrid.
Dolores Aveiro, Ronaldo’s mother, wasn’t shy of expressing her satisfaction with her son’s performance too as she looked delighted while impersonating her son’s famous “Siiiii” celebration in a dubsmash video. Ronaldo’s sister, Katia Aveiro had uploaded the video on her instagram profile.
Ronaldo’s son, Cristiano Jr. made an appearance as well.
