#2 Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal, Juventus)
Goals Scored - 19
The Portuguese scored 4 goals from 4 games in the month of February, yet dropped down in the race, due to an inferior goals-per-game ratio.
Ronaldo started the month with a brace against Parma at home, as the game ended 3-3. He scored 1 and set up the other two in the following game against Sassuolo, which Juventus won 3-0. He was among the goals in the following game as well, scoring one of his team's 3 goals. In the last game of the month against Bologna, Ronaldo failed to find the back of the net.
The Portuguese also drew a blank this weekend against Napoli, but Juventus still won 2-1. Ronaldo has now scored 19 goals from 26 games in the Serie A and is averaging a goal every 118 minutes played. He has recorded a league-high 118 shots on goal, 64 of which have been on target. At the start of March, Ronaldo is second among the contenders, only by fine margins and one can expect him to mount a fierce challenge this month.
