VIDEO: Cristiano Ronaldo doubles Real Madrid's lead with casual volley
After opening the scoring with a penalty earned by diving inside the 18-yard box, Cristiano Ronaldo doubled Real Madrid's lead against Celta de Vigo on Saturday with a far less controversial goal in the 65th minute.
Even though the goal was the result of a perfectly-struck volley, there was a general casualness that made it look far too easy because - you know- it's Ronaldo and all that.
Not that a reminder is needed, but Ronaldo's form at home really is out of this world.
17 - Cristiano Ronaldo has scored in his last 17 home league games (29 goals in total). Monster.
