Watch: Ronaldo burns everyone to score his 2nd goal vs. Valencia

Make that 33, and counting, for Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Real Madrid scoring machine continued his torrid pace Sunday when he netted a brace against Valencia in a must-win contest for Los Blancos, who have no margin for error in the title race.
The Portuguese opened the scoring in the first half with an arrowed low strike, and doubled his tally in the second stanza after roasting the Valencia defenders, who could do nothing but watch as Ronaldo's long strides took him clear of the helpless chasing pack.
Speed kills, and the 31-year-old still has plenty of it.
