Riyadh: Al Nassr striker Cristiano Ronaldo showcased his incredible talent yet again as he remarkably netted his 925th career goal, making significant progress toward his 1,000-goal milestone.

The Portuguese football legend’s latest feat comes days after he turned 40 as his Riyadh-based club gave Makkah-based Al Wehda a brutal 2-0 defeat in the Saudi Pro League (SPL). The latest goal by Ronaldo also marks his 17th league goal of the SPL campaign, proving that he remains a dominant force in the league. During the match, which was played at the King Abdul Aziz Sport City Stadium in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, Ronaldo opened the scoring in the 48th minute with a precise header from a well-placed cross, followed by his signature celebration. Ronaldo opted to pass the ball to his Senegalese teammate Sadio Mane who made no mistake and scored the second goal of the match to give a 2-0 win to Al Nassr, breaking his goal-less run in the previous nine matches.
