| - Cristiano Ronaldo scored another Champions League hat-trick as Real Madrid thrashed Atletico Madrid in the semi-final first leg to close in on a third final in four years. Real were utterly dominant throughout the game against their city rivals at the Bernabeu and led after 10 minutes when Ronaldo headed home Casemiro's cross. It looked as if Real might fail to fully capitalise on their superiority until Ronaldo let the ball bounce before smashing home an unstoppable rocket of a shot from 16 yards which flew past Atletico keeper Jan Oblak, who had made several important saves to keep his side in the tie. And Ronaldo ensured all the headlines would be his with a second consecutive Champions League hat-trick, having scored five goals in the two quarter-final legs over Bayern Munich. It was his easiest goal of the night, as he controlled Lucas Vazquez's cross in plenty of space before firing home. Atletico failed to have a single shot on target and will need to pull off one of the Champions League's all-time special performances to stop Real from ending their European dreams for the fourth straight season.
