Real Madrid's Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo (right) scored his 4th goal in 5 games yesterday in the 6:0 humiliation of Real Zaragoza, adding 32 rating points in the FTBL system to claim the 3rd spot in our ranking of strikers in La Liga.

Ronaldo is now 60 points from the top spot in the ranking, and if he continues in the same vein he could close that gap in a couple of games. In the next game, the Portuguese will have to “defend” just 3.05 points, meaning almost all of the rating points he picks up will add to his tally. In addition, Ronaldo continues to score, which means additional bonuses.

Real Madrid have scored 16 goals in their last 4 games alone, mind you, against such teams as Valencia and Olympique Marseille. Their next opponents, Asasuna and Mallorca, pale in comparison. This means future opponents are unlikely to avoid another salvo of goals if the Merengues continue in their current form. This makes Ronaldo’s chances of a 60-point surge in the FTBL system very real.
