Cristiano Ronaldo
Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo moved closer to another historic milestone on Saturday after scoring his 962nd career goal in Al Nassr FC’s 2-0 victory over Al Fateh SC.
Ronaldo, who returned to the starting line-up after a brief absence, opened the scoring in the 18th minute with a clinical finish. The goal marked his 18th of the season, underlining his continued influence in front of goal.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner delivered an energetic display, combining effectively with his teammates and consistently troubling the opposition defence with his movement and sharp positioning.
His early strike set the tone for Al Nassr’s commanding performance, as the home side secured all three points in comfortable fashion.
Since joining the Saudi Pro League outfit, Ronaldo has maintained an impressive scoring record, playing a key role in the club’s domestic ambitions. Saturday’s victory strengthens Al Nassr’s push for silverware, with the veteran forward once again proving decisive on his return to action.
