Portuguese soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo (39, Alnasr) scored his 906th goal in both professional and national teams, moving one step closer to the 1,000 goals he set.
Ronaldo scored the final goal in the 37th minute of the first half against Poland in the third match of the 2024-25 UEFA Nations League (UNL) at Warsaw National Stadium in Poland on the 13th (Korea time) to lead Portugal to a 3-1 victory.
Ronaldo’s goal came in the 37th minute of the first half when his team led 1-0.
Rafael Leão’s shot that smashed Poland’s defense with a flashy dribble breakthrough from the half-line hit the right post, and Ronaldo lightly kicked it with his left foot.
Ronaldo’s goal became the winning goal as Poland’s Piotr Zielinski scored a comeback goal in the 33rd minute of the second half.
Portugal added an opponent’s own goal in the 43rd minute of the second half to win by two goals, and maintained its lead in Group 1 with three consecutive wins (nine points). Croatia (2-1, 6 points), Poland (1-2, 3 points) and Scotland (3 losses, 0 points).
Ronaldo, who holds the record for the most goals scored in all-time A matches, increased his record to 133.
He has 906 goals overall in both professional and national teams. He volleyed at the first UNL match against Croatia last month, setting a new record of 900 goals.
Since then, he has added two goals for the national team and four goals for his team Alnasr, displaying the best sense of goal. He scored goals in a whopping six of the seven matches he played during the period.
Ronaldo recently announced that he would challenge 1,000 goals in his career, but he has been consistently scoring even ahead of the challenge. He scored 44 goals in his team’s matches in the 2023-24 season, and if he maintains this scoring pace, he will soon hit a milestone.
In Group 4 of the UNL League A, Spain, the “European champion,” scored the winning goal with Martin Subimendi’s mid-range shot in the 34th minute of the second half in an away match against Denmark to win 1-0.
Spain had two wins and one draw (7 points), beating Denmark (2-1, 6 points) to lead the group. 토토사이트
Serbia in the same group beat Switzerland 2-0 to secure its first win in three UNL matches. Serbia ranked third with one win, one draw and one loss (four points), while Switzerland, the lowest ranking team, lost three consecutive games (zero points).
