Cristiano Ronaldo has become the fourth player in Serie A history to score at least 33 goals in a calendar year after scoring the net twice against Parma.
Ronaldo hit once in each half to see Juventus win 4-0 and move level on points with Inter and one adrift of AC Milan leaders.
Ronaldo ‘s contribution is the equivalent of Omar Sivori’ s forward Juventus contribution since 1961 – scoring the third biggest goal in a year behind Gunnar Nordahl in 1950 and Felice Borel in 1933.

Ronaldo has created 174 attempts this season which is at least 67 more than any other player in the league.
Ronaldo’s bullet conversion rate – 27.73 – is at the top of both his teammates and his opponents.
His closest rival is Ciro Immobile, which is the next highest scorer in the league with 26 for Lazio.

However, he missed out on FIFA ‘s best men’ s player award on Thursday to Robert Lewandowski
Ronaldo may be able to add to his record as he will face Fiorentina on Tuesday in their last league game of 2020.
Despite breaking another record, Ronaldo missed out on the FIFA Men’s Player of the Year award on Thursday when Robert Lewandowski made the title.
Bayern Munich won the top prize for the first time after an exciting year when the Bundesliga giants won the Treble. It was only the second time in 13 years that neither Messi nor Ronaldo had won the award.
