Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo has become the first player to
score 11 goals in the group stage of a Champions League campaign.
The
Portugal international achieved the feat with his fourth goal of the
night as his side thumped Malmo 8-0 on Tuesday, having already set a new
record of 10 goals with his hat-trick at Santiago Bernabeu, besting his
own feat twice in the same night.
Ronaldo was previously the
joint holder of the record with nine, alongside Luiz Adriano, but now
becomes the outright leader after top-scoring in the group stage for the
fifth time - also a record that no other player can match.
