Last night, C. Ronaldo shone when he contributed a goal in Al Nassr's 3-1 victory over Al Ettifaq in round 18 of the Saudi Arabian national championship. With this goal, CR7 surpassed Haaland to become the player with the most goals in 2023.
To date, the Portuguese superstar has scored 51 goals and provided 15 assists at club and national team level. This season alone, CR7 has scored 17 goals for Al Nassr and is the top scorer in the Saudi Arabian national championship.
C. Ronaldo also reached 870 career goals and is the greatest scorer in history (according to FIFA records). If he continues to maintain this form, superstar number 7 can reach 900 career goals.
Meanwhile, Erling Haaland has scored 50 goals for Man City and the Norwegian national team. However, in recent times, the 23-year-old striker has been injured and has not been able to improve his performance.
The race for the 2023 Golden Boot between C. Ronaldo and Haaland promises to be extremely tense. CR7 has two more matches against Al Ittihad on December 26 and Al Taawoun on December 30 in the Saudi Arabian national championship. Similarly, Haaland has recovered from injury and is likely to play in the matches against Everton on December 28 and Sheffield United on December 30.
If C. Ronaldo becomes the player with the most goals in 2023, he will have done this for the 5th time in his career. Previously, CR7 achieved similar achievements in 2011, 2013, 2014 and 2015. In which, 2013 witnessed the remarkable sublimation of superstar number 7 when he scored 69 goals against opponents.
Meanwhile, Haaland has yet to top the calendar year. In the 2022 season, he ranked second with 46 goals, 10 goals behind Mbappe.
