WEEKEND HEROES: CRISTIANO RONALDO SHINES AGAINST SPORTING GIJON

Ronaldo may have not expected himself to pick up form this rapidly but with Saturday game, he surely is doing well to rapidly pick up his form.

With a foul on Lucas Vasquez, Ronaldo took the penalty and just in the fourth minute he was doing his regular jump-turn around-stump Ronaldo-invented celebration. Still in the first half, frenchman Nacho gave a wonderful cross which Ronaldo carefully positioned himself for a header. And there was it, the second goal. Yet another celebration from the 31-year old Portuguese. It was a fun day for the man who most think will win the Ballon d'Or.

But on the other hand, Barcelona was finding it hard to get a victory against Real Sociedad. And Messi was quite dull and couldn't shine in the game even with the presence of Suarez and Neymar.
