Al Nassr striker Cristiano Ronaldo scored his 925th career goal on Tuesday, moving closer to his 1,000-goal goal. The Portuguese football icon triumphed days after turning 40 when his Riyadh club defeated Makkah’s Al Wehda 2-0 in the Saudi Pro League. Ronaldo’s 17th league goal of the season proves his dominance in the SPL.
Ronaldo scored in the 48th minute with a header from a well-placed cross at the King Abdul Aziz Sport City Stadium in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, followed by his trademark celebration. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner, in his final year with Al Nassr, continues to perform at his best and dedicate himself to the sport.
Former Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus star’s form has been a highlight of the season, and Al Nassr’s penalty in stoppage time allowed him to score again.
Ronaldo passed to his Senegalese colleague Sadio Mane, who scored the second goal of the match to give Al Nassr a 2-0 win and snap his nine-match goal drought.
