WEEKEND HEROES: CRISTIANO RONALDO IS BACK; MAKES ALL THE HEADLINES AGAINST ATLETICO MADRID

Though he might have started slow, Ronaldo is simply getting better and better after each game. Against Atletico Madrid yesterday, Ronaldo scored a Hatrick making it his 39th hatrick of his football career.

This is Ronaldo's first hatrick of the season. Unlike his normal self, he has been finding it difficult to score goals this season and rumours have been going around that the ever-glowing and energetic Ronaldo may have reached his peak. But after yesterday's game, Ronaldo has proved his naysayers and critics wrong. Not only by putting one or two goals at the back of the net, but by scoring a hatrick and ensuring Real Madrid go back to the Bernabeu with 3 points.

He scored first in the 22nd minute with a deflection from the Atletico wall in a free kick set piece. Of course, he claimed the goal. He was tripped in the penalty area and scored the penalty in the 70th minute. And finally with a brilliant pass from Gareth Bale, he put in the third goal in the 76th minute.

Hull City Manager chides Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen following Spurs' 2-1 win

Following Spurs' 2-1 win over Hull City, City manager Steve Bruce lashed out at Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen for exaggerating to get Hull City's Ramirez Gaston red-carded. Bruce castigated such act as unhealthy for the Premier League. The Uruguayan midfielder Ramirez got the red card for kicking at Belgian Jan Vertonghen. Bruce argued his man only showed "petulance" when he was provoked by Jan. And such behaviour could not be regarded as "violent". The City went down when Tottenham's Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen found the net in the game's second half. Speaking with his news conference, Bruce said, "Ramirez has shown petulance. Vertonghen has had a little go at him, and Ramirez has flicked out. The law says it is a violent conduct. For me, it is an act of petulance -- it is not violent conduct." Via espn

Headmaster Pep Guardiola injects new rules into City camp; bans mobile phones

It's safe to say Pep is a perfectionist and also a headmaster, lol. But seriously, Pep has no intentions to drop his standards after a record-breaking 2017/18 season. He doesn't plan to chart a course like his colleague Ranieri of Leicester City did. Pep recently banned the use of mobile phones, and he also banned lateness to training. Every violation comes with a corresponding fine, ask Benjamin Mendy. Pep plans to repeat his outstanding triumph like he did last season.
