The striker rediscovered his best form in front of goal with four strikes in an 8-0 demolition of Malmo on Tuesday, with Karim Benzema also grabbing a hat-trick.
Ronaldo also broke the record for the most goals in a Champions League group stage, reaching 11 this year.

"I am not obsessed with the Ballon d'Or. These things happen naturally, and I am happy with my season," he said.
"People might be used to better performances but I am happy considering what happened at the start of the season when there were certain problems but they are private.
"I am getting better, I am feeling better, the team are helping me a lot and I am happy."

The Poland international has been in sensational form for Bayern this season and plundered 14 Bundesliga goals in as many games for the champions.
But, rumours have gathered pace that Madrid are planning to launch a bid for Lewandowski after the player's agent reportedly watched the La Liga club's win over Getafe.
However, Benitez kept his cards close to his chest when questioned on the subject ahead of his side's final Champions League group stage fixture against Malmo.
