Cristiano Ronaldo recently hit the 900 goal mark in his career. The forward scored his 900th and 901st goals during the International break with Portugal, against Croatia and Scotland, respectively. The 39-year-old was greeted emphatically by Al-Nassr fans as he returned to club football on Friday night.
The forward was honored with a custom jersey celebrating his 900 goal milestone, with GOAT written on top. Despite being in good form, the No. 7 failed to get on the scoresheet in his first game back from International duty. The Fairs Najd played out a 1-1 draw with Al-Ahli, with a 99th minute equalizer, that too an own goal, needed to salvage a point for the hosts.
An own goal from Bassam Al-Hirayji meant that Al-Nassr remain in sixth position after one win and two draws from their first three League games.
Despite his goalless display, fans unveiled a magnificent tifo for the player, of which clips went viral on social media. Ronaldo has two goals and an assist in three League games.
Cristiano Ronaldo makes history as first man ever to accumulate 1 BILLION followers across all social media platforms
It is true that Cristiano Ronaldo doesn’t follow records; the records follow him. After recently breaking YouTube subscriber records after creating his own channel, the No. 7 also became the first person ever to gain 1 billion followers across all social media platforms on Friday. The forward put out a post for the same as he expressed his joy at the achievement.
Fans also mirrored his excitement, as a supporter commented that anyone can win the World Cup, but can they gain a billion followers? In the celebratory post, Ronaldo stated that he’s always played for his family and for the fans, and this number signifies their shared love and passion for the sport.
Aged 39, Ronaldo continues to keep breaking records in his stride. The Al-Nassr captain reportedly has his eyes set on the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and has shown no signs of slowing down. On the other hand, eternal rival Lionel Messi is also set to make his return for Inter Miami after suffering a serious ankle injury in July.
