There seems to be no stopping Portuguese sensation Cristiano Ronaldo. No matter which team or which league he plays in, he makes an instant impact and often emerges as the highest goal-scorer of the month.

He has won the Player of the Month award for April, which happens to be his sixth, besides being his second for the season. He is one short of the join record for winning the most, held by Harry Kane and Sergio Aguero. The Portuguese played 360 minutes and netted five goals last month.

Last month, Ronaldo scored his 100th English Premier League (EPL) goal. It happened during his side's 1-3 defeat to Arsenal.
