Ronaldo talent out of this world, says coach

MADRID. — Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti described Cristiano Ronaldo as an out of this world talent after the Portuguese scored his third hat-trick of the season in Saturday’s 5-1 win over Real Sociedad.
Ronaldo’s treble took his tally to 24 goals in just 17 games this season as Real moved to within three points of La Liga leaders Barcelona with the Catalans not in action until yesterday.

“He has a level from another world. He scores with an incredible ease and it is difficult to find words for him,” said Ancelotti.
Ronaldo fired the hosts into the lead from Karim Benzema’s pass before roles were reversed as the Portuguese squared for the Frenchman to slot home. The former Manchester United man then dispatched a penalty past Claudio Bravo for his second of the afternoon before Gareth

Bale provided his fifth assist in four games for Sami Khedira to smash home a fourth before half-time. Antoine Griezmann then reduced the deficit for Sociedad after the break, but Ronaldo had the final word as he curled home a wicked free-kick 14 minutes from time to seal his hat-trick. Ancelotti was delighted with what he saw as arguably the best 45 minutes his side have produced since he took over in July.

“I think that the first-half was perfect. We played very well, with pace, efficiency in front of goal, sometimes we played long, sometimes short, but it all worked well,” said the Italian. — AFP.
