Real Madrid 6-3 Girona: 5 Talking Points

ROnaldo
Ronaldo scored 4 as Madrid won a 9-goal thriller at the Bernabeu.

#2 Cristiano Ronaldo still knows exactly where the goal is

The Real Madrid goal machine churned out 4 more on the night.

Cristiano Ronaldo, just a few days back, said he is what no one ever has been, or can be. Doesn't sound like just a lot of talk now, does it?

We could've done a whole new set of Talking Points on just CR7 and we wouldn't even be able to scratch the surface - of the underlying brilliance of the Portuguese.

The all-time leading goal-scorer still playing football on the planet, Ronaldo, put his side ahead twice before bagging the hat-trick. His 50th in his career for club and country.

People go through entire careers failing to score 50 goals!

He then rounded off the scoring with a fourth goal on the night. Two with the left. Two with the right. And in all honesty, could've doubled that number as he kept finding himself at the end of goal scoring opportunities.

What can be said about Cristiano Ronaldo, that hasn't already been said, and wouldn't also be true. His work in one game alone was enough to lift him over Luis Suarez into second place on the Pichichi standings.

Deafening silence in the debate of whether the Madrid superstar is past his prime..
