Cristiano Ronaldo is a freak.
That's all there is to it really. The Real Madrid hit-man has started the season in cracking form and Shakhtar Donetsk were the latest team to take a beating at the hands of the 2014 Ballon D'Or winner.
Ronaldo bagged two of his three goals tonight from the penalty spot, and of course broke a new record in the process:
499 - @Cristiano Ronaldo has now scored 499 goals as professional player (Real Madrid, Portugal, Manchester United y Sporting CP). Ace.

Ronaldo has scored 8 goals in two games. Best striker in the world. If he let's others grow around him, RM will compete for everything

Cristiano Ronaldo stats are now making for ridiculous reading on a weekly basis, as himself and Lionel Messi have redefined what is expected of a goalscorer in modern football. And the scary part is, they show no signs of slowing down.
