#3 Cristiano Ronaldo - 11 mins (Real Madrid CF 8-0 Malmö FF)
Multiple time Ballon d'Or winner and Real Madrid talisman, Cristiano Ronaldo has been in sublime form for his club in the Champions League. With nine goals in the group stages, he set a record for the most goals scored in the first round of the competition.
Ronaldo is third on the list with players who scored the fastest hat-trick in the competition, netting three goals in just 11 mins against Swedish side Malmo in 2015 in a group stage match. The Portuguese scored 4 goals in the game, including a free kick, a tap-in, and two decent right-footed strikes, Madrid recorded the victory under Rafael Benitez.
The Portuguese forward has not been in similar form, in the league, netting only 4 goals, thus far, this season. 10 goals behind Messi in the race for the Pichichi award, Real Madrid also trail in the race for the title. As the El Clasico draws nearer, it will be imperative that Ronaldo finds form and guides his club to a win over the Catalan giants.
