Madrid – Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo has scored against Almeria to set a new Spanish league record of 39 goals in a single season.

Ronaldo poked in Sergio Ramos' header at the far post after only four minutes at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium to set the new total. Ronaldo shared the previous mark of 38 with Athletic Bilbao's Telmo Zarra and Madrid's Hugo Sanchez, the league scoring leaders from the 1950-51 and 1989-90 seasons.

Ronaldo danced with his teammates in celebration of his 52nd goal of the season and 10th in four games as Madrid coach Jose Mourinho smiled on the bench.
