Cristiano Ronaldo responded to his worst run of domestic form at Real Madrid with a record-smashing scoring streak in the Champions League and in Sunday's final he can join the club's iconic forward Alfredo di Stefano on five European Cup triumphs. Ronaldo continued to reign supreme in Europe's top club competition, however, and goes into Sunday's final with 15 goals in 12 games this season. "I've had an amazing season in the Champions League," said Ronaldo, who has scored a record 120 goals in the competition overall. Ronaldo struck for Manchester United against Chelsea in the 2008 Champions League final and hit the last goal from the penalty spot in Real's 4-1 win in extra-time over Atletico Madrid in the 2014 final. Ronaldo is bidding to join a group of players who have won the European Cup five times, including former Real great Di Stefano.
