Real Madrid hat-trick hero Ronaldo: My message to home fans...

Real Madrid ace Cristiano Ronaldo had a message for home fans after their Champions League triumph over Bayern Munich.

Ronaldo finished the game with a controversial hat-trick and spoke at the final whistle.

"I just ask that the Bernabeu never whistle me," Real's all-time leading goalscorer told Antena 3.

"I try to give my best in every game and even if I don't score, I try to work to help the team."

Although the capital club enjoyed a man advantage again in this second leg, Ronaldo was left assured as to his team's superiority.

"I have no doubts that Madrid were better tonight, it's not easy to score six goals against Bayern Munich," he stated.

"We knew we had to play very well or Bayern would hurt us, because they're a team who can score goals in any stadium.

"They showed that they're a great team but we played very well ourselves and had several opportunities in the first half.

"In the second half, we conceded two goals but we're used to suffering, and we're happy with the result."
