The Portuguese superstar guided the Bianconeri to a crucial win in Sunday night's meeting with Genoa by finding the back of the net thrice.

Juventus superstar Cristiano Ronaldo hit a perfect hat-trick on Sunday as the Bianconeri run away with three vital points against Cagliari. The 36-year-old Portuguese ace scored with his head, left foot and right to guide his side to a 3-1 away win. 

The Old Lady approached the weekend's clash looking for a good response after their Champions League run was prematurely against FC Porto. In the night's encounter, it did not take long for Ronaldo to leave his mark, metting Juan Cuadrado's cross with a thumping header to open the scoring in the 10th minute.

15 minutes later, the former Real Madrid talisman earned and scored a spot-kick before adding his third with a left-footed strike in the 32nd minute. The winger and his teammates enjoyed a relatively quiet second half, subsequently allowing Giovanni Simeone in to score a consolation goal for the host.

In hindsight, the feat means that Cristiano Ronaldo has now scored 57 hat-tricks across his career. His domineering campaign in the Serie A was also taken a notch further considering that the three goals at the Sardegna Arena means he has now scored in each of the 18 stadiums he has played in since moving to Turin from Madrid.
