Ronaldo also assisted Federico Chiesa’s goal to make it 2-0 on the night, but it was his brilliant brace that made all the headlines.

As a result of his second strike of the match, the 35-year-old has overtaken Brazilian legend Pele as football’s second-highest ever goalscorer and is now just one behind Josef Bican in top spot.
