Ronaldo breaks La Liga record

Cristiano Ronaldo has set a new record to become the fastest player in La Liga history to reach 100 goals.

The 27-year-old scored twice during his side's 5-1 defeat of Real Sociedad at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday night.

The forward's 101 goals in 92 games have beaten the record of 105 matches previously held by Real Madrid legend Ferenc Puskas.

The former Manchester United player is the Primera Division's joint-top scorer with Barcelona's Lionel Messi on 35 goals.
