And yes, some had the nerve to say he was finished...
Cristiano Ronaldo's scintillating form of old seems to be back, as the Portuguese scored the game-winning brace for Real Madrid against Eibar today. With today's goals, CR7 has now scored 18 in the Spanish top flight, good enough for the third spot behind Suárez (20) and Messi (24).
Considering all goals he's scored in every competition, CR7 only has one more player to beat, as these numbers show.
Cristiano Ronaldo scores his 33rd goal of the season, only Harry Kane (35) has scored more of players in Europe’s top 5 leagues
