Real Madrid CF v FC Bayern Muenchen - UEFA Champions League Quarter Final: Second Leg

Ronaldo's 6th Champions League hattrick was arguably his best but also his most controversial as Real Madrid beat a confident Bayern team to progress into the semi-finals of the 2017 competition.

With a controversial Red card and an offside goal in the game, Ronaldo's Hat-trick only added to the excitement.

Ancelotti said Uefa should use video technology but that it should not have been necessary to see that the sending-off was wrong. “I could see he touched the ball,” he added. Asked what he said to the referee afterwards, Ancelotti smiled and broke from Spanish to quote himself in English, “good job”. Zinédine Zidane preferred not to talk about the referee but the Real Madrid coach did add, “They told me their second goal was offside too.”

Lewandowski opened the scoring with a penalty but Ronaldo responded with a header from a diagonal ball from Carvahal levelling the scores. Bayern would score again though only 2 minutes after Real, making the score 2-1 on the night but 3-3 on aggregate. A controversial call in the 84th minute would see Vidal sent off and Bayern left with ten men heading into extra time.

A rampant Ronaldo and Real Madrid pounced on this opportunity scoring 3 in extra time. Ronaldo's controversial second came on the 105th minute, controlling a cross with his chest in the box and pushing it past Neuer, despite there being strong claims for offside. The Portuguese attacking man would finish his Hattrick only 4 minutes later with a simple finish after Marcelo's build up play.

This would bring up Ronaldos century of goals as he scored 5 of Real Madrid's 6 over the two-quarter final legs. He is still the only person to have achieved this and is currently on 115.
