Ronaldo is 40 soon, scoring his 906th goal in his career! →1000 goal is in sight… Portugal also won 3-1 in a complete victory

Superstar Cristiano Ronaldo (39) has scored another goal. He is continuing his strides towards the 1,000th goal milestone.

Portugal won the 2024-20245 UEFA Nations League Group A match 3-1 at Warsaw National Stadium in Warsaw, Poland on Tuesday (Korea time). Ronaldo played an important role. He scored an additional goal in the 37th minute of the first half when his team was leading 1-0.

Ronaldo’s positioning stood out. Portuguese striker Rafael Lean completely destroyed the opponent team’s defense line with his explosive dribbling. Lean even attempted to shoot but the ball hit the post. However, Ronaldo calmly pushed ahead and shook the net.

It was Ronaldo’s 906th career goal. He has 103 goals for the Portugal national team. It may not be easy, but he is in a position to score 1,000 goals. Some predicted that he will retire soon, but Ronaldo stressed that the rumor about his retirement was created by the media.

Ronaldo can also participate in the 2026 FIFA World Cup that will take place in the year he turns 41. If so, he can make 1,000 goals. Ronaldo also expressed his strong will, saying in an interview that his goal is 1,000 goals.

The soccer expert 433 posted a caricature of Ronaldo and said, “There are 94 goals left.” Soccer fans also left comments such as “Ronaldo is a legend” and “It’s not surprising anymore,” cheering for him to score 1,000 goals.

On the day, Ronaldo played as a forward striker in a 4-3-3 formation. He played three-top with Lean and Pedro Neto. After playing for 63 minutes, Ronaldo had three shots and one dribble break. He also showed selflessness by posting an 88 percent pass success rate and one key pass.

꽁머니, a soccer statistics media, gave Ronaldo an 8.4 rating. It was the second highest rating after team midfielder Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United with an 8.5 rating). The rating of Huscoordcom, another statistics media, also showed good performance at 7.99.

Portugal started with the opening goal of Bernardou Silva (Manchester City) at the 26th minute in the first half and Ronaldo scored an additional goal to run away early. Poland also followed suit with a goal scored by Piotr Zielinski (Napoli) at the 33rd minute in the second half. However, Portugal ended the game properly with a net goal scored by Jan Bednarek (Southampton) at the 43rd minute in the second half.
