The Portuguese striker was involved in all of Los Blancos' goals today, but the team's defense made it tight for them during the last minutes of the game.

Cristiano Ronaldo's performance became more relevant as Real Madrid's defense seemed to be thinking about something else. Today, the Portuguese ace ended his goal scoring drought to lead Los Blancos to what seemed to be a comfortable 4-0 win, but the Ramos-less defense transformed the game into a nail-biter during the final minutes.

Los Blancos hardly broke a sweat for more than 75 minutes, dominating the hosts with a brace by CR7 and two more goals by Carvajal and Modric thanks to Ronaldo's assists. Nevertheless, a late double by Alex Teixeira and another goal by Dentinho had fans on the edge of their seats, as the Spanish giants conceded their first Champions League goals this season.

Ronaldo reached yet another milestone with Los Blancos today, scoring his 69th goals with the team in 68 European matches, earning most of the praises.

Real Madrid players to score in 200+ different games: Raul Gonzalez, 259; Santillana, 230; CRISTIANO RONALDO, 200.

But then again, the team's defense and Rafa Benitez did not escape their fans complaints.
