Real Madrid Is On A Roll - Cristiano Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo says that Real Madrid are “on a roll” after Rafael Benitez’s side opened their Champions League campaign with a 4-0 demolition of Shakhtar Donetsk.

The Portuguese scored a hat-trick, taking him three clear of Lionel Messi in the competition’s  all-time goalscorer charts, with Karim Benzema also on target at the Bernabeu.

After opening their Liga campaign with a goalless draw against Sporting Gijon, Real have now scored 15 goals in three games and Ronaldo feels his side are reaching top form already.

UEFA To Probe Shakhtar Donetsk For Selecting Fred In Fenerbahce Clash

Shakhtar Donetsk's decision to select Fred against Fenerbahce in the Champions League is being investigated by UEFA.

UEFA is to investigate Shakhtar Donetsk's decision to play Fred in Tuesday's Champions League clash against Fenerbahce despite reports he has failed a doping test, following a complaint by the Turkish club.

European football's governing body advised Shakhtar to omit the Brazilian for the third qualifying round first-leg tie in Istanbul, which ended goalless.

UKRAINE: Shakhtar Donetsk Wins Super Cup

Shakhtar Donetsk scored two last minute goals to beat Dynamo Kiev, who finished with nine men, 2-0 in the season-opening Ukrainian Super Cup played in Odessa on Tuesday.

Shakhtar broke the deadlock from the penalty spot in the 90th minute after Dynamo goalkeeper Olexandr Shovkovskyi was sent off for bringing down Brazilian midfielder Alex Teixeira as he burst into the area.

Captain Dario Srna calmly sent Alexander Dragovic, who stepped in between the posts, the wrong way with his spot kick.

BATE 0 SHAKHTAR DONETSK 7: Super Luiz Adriano Scores 5 Goals To Equal Lionel Messi's Record

Luiz Adriano hit a record-equalling five goals as Shakhtar Donetsk hammered BATE 7-0 in Borisov on Tuesday night. The Ukrainian champions struggled in their opening two group games, letting slip of a two-goal lead in the final four minutes of their previous match against Porto to draw 2-2.
But there was little danger of that happening in Borisov on Tuesday as they blitzed BATE in the opening 45 minutes and became the first team to score six times in the first half of a Champions League game.

Luiz Adriano plundered a 12-minute hat-trick - the third-fastest in Champions League history - adding a fourth just before the break, after Alex Teixeira had opened the scoring in the 11th minute.
