Cristiano Ronaldo makes the headlines once again as the 39-year-old becomes the first ever player to score 900 career goals. He made it into the 900-club in the Portuguese shirt. The 39-year-old scored the landmark goal against Croatia. His goal would end up being the clincher, helping Portugal to 3-points in their opening game of the UEFA Nations League. As a result, he now has a record 131 goals in international football. Meanwhile, he has managed to score 769 at the club level. He is showing no signs of stopping as of now. There is a good chance that he will be making history once again in a couple more years.
What was Ronaldo’s reaction?
The Portuguese captain fell down in tears as soon as he found the back of the net. The crowd in Lisbon were right behind him from the beginning. Everyone was waiting for it to happen. Soon in the 34th minute, Cristiano Ronaldo would make it 900 career goals from a Nuno Mendes cross. The 39-year-old would go on to say how he dreamt of this moment. Also, he would stress upon how difficult it was for him to achieve the milestone. Nonetheless, he has done it and is the sole player on the planet to do so.
Cristiano Ronaldo makes it 900 goals: Will he reach the 1000 mark?
The Portuguese star was unable to help himself to a goal at the EUROs. But, he is back on his scoring duties in the UNL. At the same time, he is enjoying himself in the Saudi Pro League. As per transfermarkt.co.in, he scored 44 goals for Al-Nassr last season. Also, the 39-year-old has made it clear that he still has a couple of years left in the tank. We, at footballexpress.in, believe that Cristiano Ronaldo is more than capable of achieving the 1000 mark, given that he has already managed 900 goals. As per goal.com, it should take him at least another 2 years to hit the 4-figure mark.
