    Cristiano Ronaldo’s tremendous third goal against Levante

    By Brooks Peck | Dirty Tackle – Sun, Feb 12, 2012 5:43 PM EST

    Real Madrid beat Levante 4-2, capitalizing on Barcelona's 3-2 loss to Osasuna on Saturday and putting itself a comfy 10 points clear at the top of the table. Cristiano Ronaldo scored Real's first three goals -- all within 12 minutes of each other -- but his third was the perfectly arched effort from outside the box you see above.

    After scoring, Ronaldo went over to hug the recently buzzed Jose Mourinho, celebrating his 27th La Liga goal and sixth hat trick in 22 matches this season. Ronaldo alone has now scored more goals than 12 La Liga teams. A single player just does not get much more dominant than that.

        Well, 7 points if you include the next Clasico.

        Dirk if all goes to plans than Madrid can actually win the league at Camp Nou but I feel Barca will screw those plans by dropping more points and allowing us to win the league before the next clasico.

        We all know the Champions League Trophy is the real prize, and Madrid will have to go through the real Barca to win the Champions League...And we all know Chrissy Ronaldon't shrivels up in big games, especially vs Barca. But hey Chrissy, great goal vs Levante!

      Also good to see Xabi Alonso will finally win a league trophy in his career. At Sociedad and Liverpool he never won a league.

      I think he was doing to these guys what he wanted to do to Barca. Similar enough kits, so he put on a display like only he can.

      You may hate his cockiness and whinging, but there is no doubt that Ronaldo is a fantastic footballer.

      10 points clear!!! This is the way the Special One beats teh Catallans. Real should respect this! and stop wanting him to beat the nets of Valdes... He is the best tactician i ever know. Not a manager...tactician

      wow david villa's el-classico goal in super copa was similar but sooo much nicer and he didnt get any of the spotlight ronaldo got for it. ronaldo is soo ovverated and is the biggest choker in important games and against hard teams, thats why he sucks in champion's league lol
