Cristiano Ronaldo scored five goals on a record-setting Saturday for Real Madrid, while Manchester City made it five straight wins to start its campaign to reclaim the Premier League title.

City needed a 90th-minute winner to down Crystal Palace 1-0, while defending champion Chelsea slumped to a 3-1 defeat at Everton that sealed its worst start in the EPL.

Ronaldo recorded his second career five-goal game to lead Madrid’s 6-0 rout at Espanyol, taking his tally to 231 goals and eclipsing Raul Gonzalez’s mark of 228 goals. He reached the milestone in 203 matches, compared to Raul’s 550.

Also in Spain, Lionel Messi went on as a substitute to give Barcelona a 2-1 win at potential title rival Atletico Madrid.
