Cristiano Ronaldo is aiming to follow up his World Cup opening game heroics for Portugal against a Morocco side licking their wounds after a crushing last-gasp defeat.
A hat-trick from the five-time world player of the year snatched a thrilling 3-3 draw for the European champions against Spain in a heavyweight Group B showdown in Sochi.
It was Ronaldo’s 51st career hat-trick, and the 51st in the tournament’s history, as the Real Madrid star became just the fourth player to score in four World Cups.
“I am very happy, it’s a nice personal record to have, one more in my career,” said Ronaldo.
“For me the most important thing is to emphasise what the team did against one of the favourites to win this World Cup.”
