Cristiano Ronaldo continues to defy expectations, showcasing incredible form and inching closer to the monumental milestone of 1,000 career goals. Despite stating recently that he’s more focused on the present than distant future goals, Ronaldo’s unstoppable momentum suggests he won’t have to wait long to reach the mark.
In his last three matches, Ronaldo has scored five goals, demonstrating his consistency across competitions. During the international break, he scored twice against Poland in the Nations League. Back with Al Nassr, he netted in the previous match against Al Qadsiah and followed it up with a decisive brace last night in Al Nassr’s 3-1 victory over Al Gharafa in the AFC Champions League.
Ronaldo’s goals, in the 46th and 64th minutes, both came from inside the box—a precise header and a clean finish—bringing his career tally to an astonishing 913 goals. This season, he has 13 goals and 3 assists in 17 matches for Al Nassr. Additionally, he has reached 40 goals for 2024, surpassing 550 combined goals and assists after turning 30.
After the match, Ronaldo said, “My primary goal is always the team’s success. Goals come naturally when the team performs well. I dedicate this win to the fans, the club, and my teammates.”
