Cristiano Ronaldo's Hot Scoring Week and a Very Amazing El Classico

UEFA Champions League Ajax vs Real Madrid
October 4, 2012 2:45 am Philippine Time

Cristiano Ronaldo just scored a hat-trick in their La Liga game before this, and then he followed it up with another hat-trick here in UCL making him the 9th all-time scorer in UCL. The game against Ajax was dominated by Real Madrid. Even Ajax admitted that they didn't played well and it costs them much. Ronaldo and Real Madrid scored the first goal in the first half from a Benzema pass and although Real Madrid actually had more chances, it was still great. Then second half showed more goals and all amazing ones. I was delighted to see Kaka starting for Real Madrid and he provided quality minutes just the same. He had some chances and set up some as usual, and then his amazing cross to Benzema and Karim just equally making it more amazing by doing a bicycle kick for their second goal. That's awesome. Ajax was able to score to make it 1-2 and just like the old conceded goals by Real Madrid, it was yet another one from a set-piece this time from a corner. Ajax threatened and they could have equalized, getting more possessions, but Cristiano Ronaldo was just unstoppable to get his first UCL hat-trick. In the 79th minute he had a  shot from outside the area and it was really great. It's a pass from Benzema too and after just two minutes Ronaldo scored again lobbing a shot off the goalkeeper to make it 1-4. It's the usual Ronaldo perhaps. With that space so wide for Ronaldo, it's just going to be difficult for other teams goalkeeper to stop him. It's great. Real Madrid was on top of their group with 6 points and showing good signs they are back.

Again, everyone who played, played awesome. Just so happy to see Kaka and playing so well. There's some controversies again surrounding them, with Ozil coming off the bench and Modric not playing at all. But just the same, it was only the newspapers who's making it sound it's a controversy. Real Madrid players, assured, they were all good. I'm okay with it.

La Liga El Classico Barcelona vs Real Madrid
October 8, 2012 1:50 am Philippine Time

Everyone was waiting for this. The whole world to be exact. Everyone, internet, newspaper, even here in the Philippines, it's all been anticipated. And waiting for it was all worth it. The game could have not ended more fitting than these. Fulltime scores at 2-2, with Messi two goals, Cristiano Ronaldo two goals. My reaction, does it really always have to be them??? For this one, I say yes. They were the best. But watching the game, it was more than that of course. Playing at Away side, Real Madrid started the game well. They had some chances from Sergio Ramos, from Karim Benzema, and it shed a light that they can actually pull one out. And they did. Cristiano Ronaldo opens up the scoring in the 23rd minute and was the first ever to score 6 consecutive times on an El Classico. He had silenced the Barca fans but just for a while. Messi scored and equalized after some misses from inside. That could have been stopped, but that's Messi, so yeah, that's just understandable too. After that Messi goal, Barcelona seems to dominate the game by then but halftime was tied at 1-1. Then came second half, possession was still dominated by Barcelona although they really weren't able to make some shots too. Then again, from a conceded free-kick, Messi again scored and make it 2-1 at the 61st minute. It's an amazing free-kick (although I have to be bias and say Ronaldo's free kicks were more awesome and powerful), and sad for Real Madrid as they were down. But after just five minutes, again Cristiano Ronaldo scored and make it 2-2. You just can't complain more. They were both amazing and having to watch these two was just a good feeling. Sad though because Ronaldo injured his shoulder and was in pain for some time though he finished the game. I just hope that he will be okay.

I just have to agree with Mourinho, we fans were treated with yet another best game. We enjoyed it all and it's thanks to both the teams Real Madrid and Barcelona, its thanks to all the players, it's thanks to two of the world's best Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

Gracias Real Madrid!!! Gracias Cristiano Ronaldo!

Hala Madrid!
