Ronaldo ANOTHER hat-trick 

Gareth Bale hailed Cristiano Ronaldo as the best all-round player in the world after the Portuguese striker netted yet another hat-trick for Real Madrid.

The Tottenham winger tweeted: 'Another hat-trick for Ronaldo! I think he's the best all round player in the world right now #ballondor2013 :p' after Jose Mourinho's side eased to a 4-0 victory in the second leg of their fifth round Copa Del Rey tie against Celta Vigo. 

Three from the Portugal captain, and a late goal from German midfielder Sami Khedira, ensured the La Liga champions progressed with a 5-2 aggregate win.

Ronaldo showed no signs of being disheartened after missing out on the Ballon d'Or crown to Lionel Messi on Monday. 

He got Real going in the third minute, cutting in and swerving a shot across goal and beyond the perplexed Sergio Alvarez.

He made it two in the 23rd minute, volleying in Luka Modric's chip over the top, with his hat-trick coming three minutes from the end as he made good of Gonzalo Higuain`s pass.

Khedira made it four, with Sergio Ramos' sending off the one black spot for Madrid.

Tottenham winger Bale has been linked with a move to the Spanish capital after dazzling for the north London club this season.
