Ronaldo has now gone six games without a goal.
Real Madrid increased their Spanish record of scoring in 47 consecutive games with a win in Italy, but their Portuguese star striker is enduring his longest baron patch in the Champions League – Ronaldo has now gone six games without a goal.
He has five assists in seven Champions League appearances this term – his most in the competition in a single season for Real – but was neither scorer nor provider against Napoli.
Back from injury, having missed Saturday’s 4-1 win over Eibar, Ronaldo had Real’s best chance in the first-half, but he could only hit the woodwork from a tight angle having rounded Napoli goalkeeper Pepe Reina.
And once again Real looked leaky at the back – the likes of Hamsik, Lorenzo Insigne and Mertens carving them open with relative ease during the first half.
But captain Ramos came to their rescue and Real never looked back.
