Cristiano Ronaldo Equals Raul's All-Time Real Madrid Goalscoring Record

Cristiano Ronaldo claimed one more piece of Real Madrid history for himself on Wednesday, as he equalled Raul's all-time goalscoring record for the club. The Portuguese powerhouse helped himself to two in Real's Champions League match against Malmo and etched his name into Los Blancos folklore.

After netting five goals in La Liga against Espanyol and a Champions League hat-trick against Shakhtar Donetsk earlier in September, Ronaldo was eager to make short work of Malmo's shortcomings in defence.

Against Espanyol, Ronaldo smashed Raul's league-goal haul of 228, according to Mail Online's Pete Jenson, and the accolades continue to fall.
