Cristiano Ronaldo is now three ahead of longtime rival Lionel Messi when it comes to hat-tricks scored in the 21st century.

He managed to make it perfect as well, scoring on with his left foot, one with his right foot and one with his head.
It means 'CR7' has 57 hat-tricks in his overall career, which is just ahead of Messi's 53.
Messi's last hat-trick came against Eibar last February and it's unlikely he'll match Ronaldo's tally.

That doesn't mean his numbers are poor though. Ronaldo and Messi are on another level to everyone else and the closest player is Luis Suarez with 29 hat-tricks.
