C. Ronaldo reached another record

Cristiano Ronaldo's talent shines not only on the field, but also beyond it.

The day before yesterday, the Portuguese scored a hat-trick and led Real Madrid to victory against Atletico, and today he is shining on the internet.

The "Royal" club's sniper became the first athlete to surpass the 100 million followers mark on the social networking site Instagram.

For comparison, his main rival Lionel Messi attracts only 70.8 million fans with his photos.

Ronaldo uses Instagram quite often and constantly receives millions of likes.

So far, he has posted 1786 updates, each of which attracts about 55 thousand new followers.
