Cristiano Ronaldo Scores 950th Career Goal as Al Nassr Extend Perfect Start

<h3><strong>Ronaldo Reaches 950 Goals as Al Nassr Stay Unstoppable</strong></h3><p><strong>Buraidah, Saudi Arabia:</strong> Cristiano Ronaldo’s incredible journey shows no signs of slowing down. The 40-year-old superstar reached <strong>950 career goals</strong> on Sunday night as <strong>Al Nassr</strong> beat <strong>Al Hazem 2-0</strong> to stay top of the Saudi Pro League with a perfect record this season.</p><p>The Portuguese legend, who has shattered nearly every scoring record in football, once again delivered in style — scoring late in the match to seal the win and ignite celebrations across the stadium.</p><h3><strong>Early Dominance From Al Nassr</strong></h3><p>From the very first whistle, Al Nassr looked in complete control. Their crisp passing, movement, and high pressing immediately pushed Al Hazem onto the back foot.</p><p>The breakthrough came in the <strong>24th minute</strong>, when <strong>João Félix</strong> continued his red-hot form by heading home a perfect cross from <strong>Ayman Yahya</strong>. It was Félix’s ninth goal of the season — a reminder of why Al Nassr’s attacking line is one of the most feared in Asia.</p><p>While Al Nassr dominated possession, Al Hazem goalkeeper <strong>Bruno Varela</strong> was forced into several sharp saves, keeping his side in the contest and preventing the scoreline from getting out of hand before halftime.</p><h3><strong>Ronaldo’s Historic Moment</strong></h3><p>The second half saw more of the same: Al Nassr controlling tempo, probing patiently, and waiting for Ronaldo’s moment. It finally came in the <strong>88th minute</strong>, a goal that etched his name deeper into football’s record books.</p><p>A slick move began with <strong>Sadio Mané</strong>, who turned cleverly in midfield before slipping the ball to <strong>Wesley</strong>. The Brazilian forward unselfishly squared the ball across the box to Ronaldo.</p><p>Though his shot wasn’t the cleanest, fortune smiled on the five-time Ballon d’Or winner — the ball looped off the defender and dipped just under the crossbar. For a split second, there was silence before the crowd erupted into thunderous cheers.</p><p>Ronaldo spread his arms wide, smiling towards the roaring fans, as his teammates surrounded him in celebration. It was more than just another goal — it was his <strong>950th career strike</strong>, an almost surreal milestone that cements his position as one of the most prolific players in the history of the game.</p><h3><strong>Still Hungry, Still Relentless</strong></h3><p>Even at 40, Ronaldo remains an unstoppable force. His professionalism, fitness, and obsession with excellence continue to inspire millions. Since joining <strong>Al Nassr</strong>, he has already scored <strong>over 100 goals</strong> for the Saudi club — adding to legendary tallies achieved with <strong>Sporting CP, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus</strong>, and <strong>Portugal</strong>.</p><p>Ronaldo’s goal also marked his <strong>sixth</strong> of the current league campaign, helping Al Nassr maintain their <strong>perfect start — six wins in six games</strong>. The club now leads the Saudi Pro League table and looks determined to reclaim the championship title.</p><p>After the game, Ronaldo took to social media, writing:</p><blockquote><p>“Another win, another goal — 950 and counting. The hunger never fades.”</p></blockquote><p>It’s a message that perfectly sums up his mindset: never satisfied, always pushing for more.</p><h3><strong>Chasing the 1,000-Goal Dream</strong></h3><p>Ronaldo’s 950-goal record includes strikes for <strong>clubs and country</strong>, spanning over two decades of football dominance. With his current form, reaching the <strong>1,000-goal milestone</strong> — once thought impossible — now looks achievable.</p><p>His fans continue to marvel at his longevity, while teammates describe him as the ultimate professional. “He inspires everyone around him,” João Félix said after the match. “You can see why he’s still at the top — every training, every game, he pushes himself and us.”</p><h3><strong>Al Nassr’s Perfect Start</strong></h3><p>With another dominant performance, <strong>Al Nassr remain top of the table</strong>, six wins from six, with a goal difference that reflects both their attacking depth and defensive stability. Under manager <strong>Luís Castro</strong>, the team looks more cohesive than ever, with Mané, Félix, and Ronaldo forming a lethal trio.</p><p>As the final whistle blew at <strong>King Abdullah Sports City</strong>, Ronaldo stood in the centre circle, applauding the fans. He had made history once again — but his eyes were already on the next goal.</p><p>Because for Cristiano Ronaldo, <strong>950 is just another number</strong> on the way to 1,000.</p>
