Cristiano Ronaldo has pushed his tally to 961 goals, scoring his 17th of the season in a 3‑0 win over Al Kholood. The 40‑year‑old opened the scoring with a clinical finish after a slick pass from João Félix, keeping Al Nassr on a four‑game winning streak for the season again.

Reaching 1,000 competitive goals would cement Ronaldo as the sport’s most prolific scorer, a feat no other player has officially achieved. With 143 international goals from 225 caps, he already tops the men’s record, while his club career spans Sporting CP, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus and now Al Nassr.

Al Nassr’s dominance in the Saudi Pro League continues as the club secures its seventh straight win, with Ronaldo’s goals driving the charge. The 961‑goal tally also boosts the team’s confidence heading into the final stretch of the season, where title rivals will test their mettle in the league again.

Fans will watch the next fixture against Al Hazem to see if Ronaldo can close the gap to 1,000. Analysts note that his experience and precision could spark a push, while the Saudi Pro League’s competitive balance keeps the race.
