The 31-year-old completed his hat-trick and clinched the victory for Real Madrid in the 104th minute, by smashing the loose ball into the roof of the net.

The 31-year old was awarded the Golden Ball of the tournament and he was the only footballer who win Club World Cup in two different clubs after 2008 in Manchester United.

"This year has become unforgettable both for the team and myself," said Ronaldo.

"I want to play my best and make good result. I am used to the criticism, but on the pitch I will continue doing my job, enjoy my match and get more titles," he added.
