Later in the evening, Rodriguez posted a photo of a young Ronaldo as a boy on her Instagram account as she paid tribute to her superstar boyfriend.
"This 3-0, nobody steals it. You deserve it, but not for the three goals tonight," she said.
"You deserve it for your dedication, for what you get in the club where you are. You are a leader for your teammates, coach and everyone we admire and support every day.
"Karma exists. God knows, God gives it to you, because the world of soccer is yours. WE LOVE YOU. Cristianito, Mateo, Eva, Alana, Georgina."
