Cristiano Ronaldo scored a hat-trick during Real Madrid's La Liga clash with Getafe this afternoon to take his tally beyond 300 goals in club football.

The Portuguese winger started the encounter on 299, but his 10-minute trio of second-half goals allowed him to reach the landmark.

It was the 19th hat-trick of his Madrid career, which works out just better than one every 10 matches.

Ronaldo's tally for Los Blancos, who he joined for £80m from Manchester United in 2009, now reads 179 goals from 176 appearances.
