Cristiano Ronaldo hit yet another important goal as Al-Nassr beat Al-Rayyan 2-1 in the AFC Champions League Elite.
Just before halftime, Sadio Mane put Al-Nassr ahead. In the 76th minute, Ronaldo scored a smart goal to make it 2-0.
Even though Roger Guedes scored a goal for Al-Rayyan late in the game, Al-Nassr still won.
Ronaldo has scored seven goals for Al-Nassr in eight games this season, all leagues included.
Ronaldo celebrated by pointing to the sky instead of the ground like he had done before.
Ronaldo gave his father a birthday present when he scored the goal, which would have been his 71st birthday.
Jose, Ronaldo’s father, died at the age of 52 in 2005 from a liver disease caused by drinking too much. Ronaldo was 20 years old at the time.
It was a first for Ronaldo to score against Al-Rayyan.
Will Jeanes said that Ronaldo has scored more goals in his 30s than he did in his 20s.
When Ronaldo was 20, he scored 440 goals in 596 games. Now that he is 30, he has scored 441 goals in 523 games.
The Portuguese star has now scored 904 goals, passing the important milestone of 900 on his career.
