Cristiano Ronaldo is dangerously close to the 1,000 club goals mark with a recent double that brought him to 919 goals. The five-time Ballon d'Or winner continues to demonstrate his quality by leading the goal scoring table in the Saudi league and confirming that, at 39 years old, he remains a football legend.
In the recent 3-1 victory of Al Nassr against Al Khaleej, Ronaldo shone with his performance by scoring two goals. His first goal came in the 65th minute with a powerful shot from outside the box, followed by another goal after a pass that he only had to push into the net. With these goals, the Portuguese increased his footprint in world football and took one step closer to his goal of reaching 1,000 goals in his career.
Ronaldo has reached 12 goals in the Saudi league, tying at the top of the goal scoring table with Alexander Mitrovic. At the end of the match, in stoppage time, he scored the goal that sealed the 3-1 victory, thus becoming the league's top scorer with 13 goals, surpassing Mitrovic. Despite the sending off of a rival player in the first half, Al Nassr struggled to find the net, but Ronaldo's performance was decisive.
The victory allowed Al Nassr to regain third place in the Saudi league, although they are still eight points behind the leaders. Despite the challenges, Cristiano Ronaldo continues to shine on the field and his name remains part of football history.
