Armenia 2-3 Portugal: Cristiano Ronaldo scores his third hat-trick in three games to complete comeback victory



Cristiano Ronaldo completed his third straight hat-trick in as many games for club and country as Portugal came from behind to defeat Armenia in the Euro 2016 Group I qualifier in Yerevan.
Armenia took the lead when Brazilian-born Marcos Pizzelli unleashed an unstoppable free-kick from 35 yards which flew past Rui Patricio and in off the underside of the crossbar after 14 minutes.
The hosts' lead lasted less than quarter of an hour as Ronaldo calmly sent goalkeeper Roman Berezovski the wrong way after Joao Moutinho had been brought down inside the box by Henrikh Mkhitaryan.







Portugal have moved five points clear at the top of Group I after the 3-2 victory in Armenia on Saturday
