Cristiano Ronaldo reached a significant milestone by scoring his 50th goal of the 2023 season as Al-Nassr defeated Al-Shabab 5-2, securing a spot in the semi-finals of the Saudi King Cup. The Portuguese forward, formerly of Real Madrid and Manchester United, netted his team’s fourth goal in the second half. This latest achievement adds to his remarkable record, as it marks the eighth time he has reached this milestone throughout his career.
Ronaldo’s current season tally stands at 26 goals, with 16 of those coming in 15 Saudi Pro League matches. Just three days prior, he played his 1,200th professional match, contributing with a goal and an assist in a 4-1 victory against Al-Riyadh. Ronaldo’s consistent performance and impact continue to solidify his status as one of the greatest footballers of all time.
