- As for the match against Barcelona, the Portuguese took six games and the balance was just bad: it had won only once (08-09 Champions League semi-final at Old Trafford) and none of the six parties had been able score a goal. The bad luck came to an end on Saturday, where Christian was able to celebrate the first goal of Madrid in this classic, since the Portuguese signed by whites.

Cristiano Ronaldo scoring for Barcelona after seven games
The seventh game against Barcelona, Cristiano Ronaldo made his first goal. The poor run of Portuguese in the games against the Catalans came to an end with a penalty goal in the classic match at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium. And that goal from the penalty spot helped him to equal his record as a striker to score his goal 42, the same mark reached in Manchester United three seasons ago.
