Ronaldo Scores 925th Goal After Turning 40

On Tuesday, Al Nassr striker Cristiano Ronaldo displayed his extraordinary ability once more as he astonishingly scored his 925th career goal, therefore making great progress toward his 1,000-goal record.

Days after turning forty, the Portuguese football great’s newest achievement comes from his Riyadh-based team giving Al Wehda, Makkah-based, a merciless 2-0 loss in the Saudi Pro League (SPL). Ronaldo’s most recent goal also marks his 17th league goal of the SPL campaign, therefore demonstrating his continuing dominance in the league.

Ronaldo opened the score in the 48th minute of the King Abdul Aziz Sport City Stadium in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, with a crisp header from a well-placed cross, then with his trademark celebration.

Currently in his last year of contract with Al Nassr, the five-time Ballon d’Or award winner keeps defying age by giving performances that mirror his exceptional skill set and passion to the sport.

The outstanding performance of former Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus player Al Nassr has been a highlight of the season; he was given the chance to increase his tally when Al Nassr was handed a penalty far into stoppage time.

Breaking his goal-less streak in the past nine games, Ronaldo chose to throw the ball to his Senegalese colleague Sadio Mane, who made no error and scored the second goal of the match to give Al Nassr a 2-0 win.
