Cristiano Ronaldo has become the first player in the history of Spanish football, to score 50 goals in five consecutive seasons.
The Portuguese captain scored the last goal, as Real Madrid defeated Malaga 3-1 on Saturday, to move within one point of rivals Barcelona.
Ronaldo had earlier missed the opportuity to break the record, after he missed a second-half penalty, but he was able to add to the two assists he had provided in the game with a goal of his own.
It also means the 30-year-old has now scored in five successive La Liga games, netting nine goals.
Ronaldo, who has played 45 matches this term, arrived at the Santiago Bernabeu in 2009 for a then world record transfer fee of £80m.
