Ranking the Top 5 Goal scorers in 2018 (Calendar Year) so far

#2 Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal, Juventus)

AC Milan v Juventus - Serie A

Goals Scored - 43

Since 2010, Ronaldo has scored more than 40 goals for club and country every year without fail. In 2017, the Portuguese superstar finished with 53 goals and 13 assists from 60 games in total and he is on course to break that 50 goal barrier once again this year.

2018, so far, has been quite eventful for Ronaldo, as he switched allegiance over the summer, joining Juventus in Serie A from Real Madrid. Since the start of the year, Ronaldo has scored 43 goals and registered 11 assists in total, from 44 games. Out of these, 28 goals were for Real Madrid - 22 goals in La Liga and 6 goals in the Champions League.

In the 2018 FIFA World Cup, Ronaldo was in inspired form, scoring 4 goals from 4 games, yet he could not prevent Portugal's early exit from the tournament, when they were beaten by Uruguay in the round of 16.

After making the switch to Juventus, Ronaldo has scored 9 goals from 15 games. In the Serie A, he has scored 8 goals from 12 games, while he also has 1 goal from 3 games in the Champions League. One can safely assume that the Portuguese will definitely add to his tally till the end of the year, but as of now, Cristiano Ronaldo is second among the top scorers in this calendar year.
