Ronaldo is getting closer to the 1000-goal milestone. |
In the 5-0 victory against Al Najma in the 23rd round of the Saudi Pro League on the morning of February 26th, Cristiano Ronaldo opened the scoring in the 7th minute with a perfectly executed penalty. This goal not only relieved early pressure on his team but also brought him to 965 goals in official matches. The Portuguese superstar is now just 35 goals away from reaching the 1000-goal mark.
In the second half, Ronaldo continued to make his mark. In the 52nd minute, he participated in an attack from the right wing by Al Nassr, before delivering a perfect pass for Sadio Mane to score.
This season, Ronaldo has been involved in 26 goals in 25 matches for Al Nassr across all competitions, including 22 goals and 4 assists. This performance shows that he still maintains his intensity and sharpness despite being 41 years old.
Since joining Al Nassr in January 2023, the team has been awarded 37 penalties by July 2025. Ronaldo has taken 27 of them. In 2026, he will still be the first-choice penalty taker with an almost perfect success rate.
Not only did Ronaldo score, but he also increased his career total of assists to 306 after this match. However, the Portuguese superstar didn't have the chance to improve his record in the game as he had to leave the field in the 57th minute.
The three points earned also helped Al Nassr take the lead in the Saudi Pro League with 58 points, two points ahead of second-placed Al Ahli.
At a time when many players had chosen to stop, Ronaldo continued to exert a direct influence on the outcome of the match. A penalty goal, a precise assist, and a historic milestone were all set in the same evening.
Al Nassr fans pay tribute to Ronaldo. In the early hours of February 7th, Al Nassr fans collectively expressed their support for Cristiano Ronaldo in their 2-0 victory against Al Ittihad in Round 21 of the Saudi Pro League 2025/26.
