CRISTIANO RONALDO SCORED an 11-minute hat-trick — and then added a fourth for good measure — as Real Madrid equalled the Champions League record with an 8-0 walloping of Malmo.
Karim Benzema scored a treble of his own, and Mateo Kovacic was also on the mark, as Rafa Benitez’s side ran riot at the Bernabeu.
Coincidentally, Benitez was Liverpool manager when they beat Besiktas 8-0 and set the record for the most goals in a Champions League game back in 2007.
