Ronaldo scored his 899th career goal in Al-Nassr’s 4-1 win against Al Feiha in the Saudi Pro League. The goal was a free kick, marking Ronaldo’s 64th career free kick goal.
After scoring, Ronaldo posted on social media: “This is only the beginning. Let’s go ahead Al Nasr.” At nearly 40 years old, Ronaldo is still showing deep passion for football.
Before taking the free kick, Ronaldo reportedly said to himself in Portuguese: “I’m the best.” Ronaldo is now one free kick goal behind Lionel Messi and David Beckham on the all-time list.
He has scored in both of Al-Nassr’s Saudi Pro League matches so far this season. Ronaldo will likely reach his 900th career goal soon.
Despite his age, Ronaldo’s comment, “This is only the beginning,” indicates he feels he still has more to accomplish in his career.
