CRISTIANO RONALDO AN ALIEN!



He knows no boundaries, especially when it comes to official international matches in UEFA territory, and in Turin, Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo added another notch to his 'Book of golden goals.'
Scoring in his 26th European city came with his first double in Italy, something that he has already done no less than 50 times everywhere else.
The Portuguese forward has played in 76 cities in the European confederation, with four different jerseys during his professional career (Sporting Clube, Manchester United, Real Madrid and the Portuguese national team) and in 45 of them (near 60%) has left his mark as a goalscorer.
There are 40 UEFA territories in which he has played and 26 in which he has scored (65%).
Holland has been his favorite with five goals in two matches at Ajax, while Hungary has resisted him the most, scoreless in three games in Budapest, the same record he has in Braga with Portugal.
Ronaldo's goal scoring curve has not stopped going up in these 'European' matches.
He has accumulated 184 goals, scored in 120 of the 253 official international matches in UEFA territory, but his performance has grown exponentially over the past few years.
Although he marked an impressive figure of 73 goals in his first 150 appearances - good for almost one every two matches - in the last 103, he has exceeded an average of a goal per game with 111 scored in little more than five years.
He's seemed to enjoy it when playing in adverse terrain, and certainly much more now after the ovation from the Juventus fans to his spectacular bicycle kick.
The truth is that his past year is likely to be unrepeatable, and if you think not, here are the numbers since last April 12: 24 matches, 18 matches scoring, 12 braces or higher and 32 goals, distributed in 13 of the 17 UEFA cities visited.
This is Cristiano Ronaldo, international.

Spain 6 Croatia 0: Asensio leads destruction of World Cup finalists

Getty Images Marco Asensio grabbed a goal and forced four others as Spain put Croatia to the sword in their Nations League clash in Elche. Croatia suffered the biggest defeat in their history as Spain thrashed them 6-0 in Tuesday's Nations League match at Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero. Marco Asensio scored once and set up four more in Luis Enrique's second match in charge, as the World Cup finalists were run ragged in Elche. Saul Niguez headed Spain in front before Asensio fired in two spectacular strikes, although the second was credited as an own goal from Lovre Kalinic. Croatia, for whom Ivan Rakitic was making his 100th appearance, rarely got to grips with their opponents and conceded three times more in the second half through Rodrigo Moreno, Sergio Ramos and Isco.
