The ridiculous numbers behind Ronaldo's latest scoring outburst

Cristiano Ronaldo is a cheat code.

Not content with ripping out the heart of Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals, Real Madrid's irrepressible attacker laid waste to another, more defensively stout opponent on Tuesday, scoring a treble to lead Los Blancos to a 3-0 victory over bitter city rival Atletico Madrid in the semi-final first leg between the two inhabitants of the Spanish capital.

As the photogenic Portuguese kept bulging the back of the net, the records kept falling, and the milestones continued to be set.

Here's a look at the absurd numbers behind Ronaldo's latest scoring outburst:

7 - Hat-tricks scored in the Champions League

That brings the 32-year-old level with a familiar Argentine peer for the most hat-tricks ever recorded in the tournament.

8 - Goals scored in his last three Champions League matches

Five in the tie against Bayern Munich powered Zinedine Zidane's men to this stage, and, clearly, he had more than enough left in the bank to cash in during the semi-finals.

21 - Nobody has scored more goals in Madrid derbies than Ronaldo

When you think of some of the illustrious players to have showcased their talents for both sides - particularly the attackers who count themselves among Los Blancos' star-studded alumni - that's quite the achievement.

52 - Champions League goals in the knockout stages

That's one more than he's scored in the group stage of Europe's marquee competition. And they said he pads his stats against the minnows ...

53 - Champions League goals scored in home matches

You guessed it: another record.

103 - Champions League goals scored in his career

For reference, that's more than Atletico Madrid (100) has scored as a club in the history of the competition. Insanity.

400 - Goals scored for Real Madrid

If the last month is any indication, there's no sign of Ronaldo slowing down any time soon.
