The Real Madrid forward helped to lead from the front once more in a Confederations Cup clash, with his 56th effort of the season netted from the spot

Club or country, it does not matter to Cristiano Ronaldo as he continued his remarkable scoring run at the Confederations Cup.

The Real Madrid superstar enjoyed a stunning sequence of games to end his 2016-17 campaign, netting 16 times in his final 10 fixtures.

That haul included hat-tricks at the quarter-final and semi-final stage of the Champions League, before finding the target twice in a final victory over Juventus.
