We made a cup of tea at 1-0, came back and it was 4-0.
The supposed around the Bernabeu has been firmly paused as Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid set about 19th placed Granada this morning.
The brouhaha (terribly fun word to say) around Ronaldo, Gareth Bale and Carlo Ancelotti dissipated when the Welshman opened the scoring on the 25 minute mark.
But it was the Cristiano Ronaldo show for the rest of the half as the current Ballon d’Or holder sealed the 28th hat-trick of his Real Madrid career and it took him just eight minutes to do so.
And ol’ greedy guts added to his tally with a header that saw the Portuguese crash into the post and hurt himself in the process.
Not content with the four, Ronnie put Granada to bed by scoring his fifth (and Madrid’s ninth) to boost Real’s goal difference big time.
