In the process, Juventus successfully overturned a two-goal deficit from the first leg to progress to the quarterfinals with a 3-2 aggregate win. Ronaldo, meanwhile, equaled Lionel Messi's record of eight Champions League hat-tricks.

The three-goal haul also made Ronaldo the oldest player to score a hat-trick in the competition, and the only 34-year-old player to score a Champions League hat-trick since Claudio Pizarro did so for Bayern Munich in 2012-13.

In his first full season in Italy, Ronaldo played a key role for Juventus as the Bianconeri won a record-extending 8th consecutive Serie A title.

In the process, the Portugal captain became the first player to win top-flight titles in England (Manchester United), Spain (Real Madrid) and Italy.
