Ronaldo's Hatter Sinks Cross-Town Atlético in Champs' Semi-Final
While Atlético Madrid as a whole has scored just 100 goals in their Champions League history, Cristiano Ronaldo has now registered 103 on his own in the grandest club stage of them all.
The Champions League sem-ifinal between Castillian rivals Real Madrid and Atlético wasn't the cliffhanger many expected, as the Galacticos coasted to a 3-0 whitewash.
This was only the first leg. Still, if Los Rojiblancos are to get back into the conversation, they'll need nothing less than a miracle.
Ronaldo opened up the scoring with his signature header:
Haters will say it was offside, but none of them were a linesman in this one.
Atlético couldn't stop Ronaldo from bagging another as the defense gave in yet again:
Hat tricks have been a Champions League habit for the Portuguese legend, so his final strike was hardly a surprise:
Give him the Ballon d'Or already.
