Real Madrid's hopes rest on the shoulders of the big man

Cristiano Ronaldo's performance this season in the Champions League and in the domestic competitions has been as starkly different as chalk and cheese. With 9 goals in 6 group games, Ronaldo topped the charts this season and was the highest scorer in the group phase for a record sixth time.

Ronaldo also set a record this season of being the only player to score in all the six European matches this season. Real Madrid need him more than ever to bail them out of their current rut. The reigning champions face a stern test against Paris Saint Germain.

Real Madrid have been utterly disappointing this season. Against PSG, Real need Cristiano Ronaldo to step up and continue his terrorizing form in Europe this season. His hattrick against Real Sociedad at the weekend was a perfect dress rehearsal for the great man.

If Ronaldo does manage to lead Real Madrid against a win over PSG with all the odds against their favour, there is absolutely no stopping him from winning the top scorer award for the second season running.
