Ronaldo scores landmark goal in cup final for Al-Nassr as he sets another record

Cristiano Ronaldo hit another milestone on the big stage, after he had converted a fine of the first half to make Al-Nassr forward in the Saudi Super Cup final in Hong Kong.

The goal meant Ronaldo's 100th for the Riyadh Club, so he scored the first player ever 100 or more goals for four different clubs.

It also cost him until 939 career goals, now 61 away from the elusive 1000 that the Portuguese star chases.

In his earlier spells in Europe, he yielded 450 for Real Madrid, 145 for Manchester United, and 101 for Juventus.

The opener of Al-Nassr arrived late in the first half of the place, before Franck Kession equalized for Al-Ahli in the first half stop time.

This decision maker has been Saudi Super Cup takeover in Hong Kong for a week.

Al-Nassr squeezed Al-Actihad 2-1 in the semi-final of Tuesday under the lights, while Al-Ahli Al-Qadsiah struck 5-1 a day later to book their place.

Saturday's final was invoiced as an opportunity for Ronaldo to claim his first official trophy with Al-Nassr since arrival in 2023.

The 40-year-old won the 2023 ARAB Club Champions Cup, but this is outside the recognized ledger of FIFA.

This record is the last about Ronaldo's CV. In January he became the first player ever to win 700 victories in club football during his career.

Last November he became the first player to score more than 40 goals in 13 separate calendar years, causing Lionel Messi's count of 12 of such years to catch up.
