Ronaldo’s Pursuit of Goals Continues Amidst Team Victory

omidbasir- Cristiano Ronaldo has achieved an astounding career total of 960 goals. However, he could not add to this tally during Al-Nassr’s recent match against Al-Taawoun. Instead, Jorge Jesus’ team secured a vital victory through an own goal by Mohammed Al Dossary, allowing them to maintain their pursuit of the league title. Sadio Mane made a notable return to action after AFCON 2025, contributing significantly to his team, while goalkeeper Bento was largely unchallenged throughout the match. This result is particularly commendable considering Al-Taawoun’s impressive performance this season, placing them fifth in the league standings.

Following the game, the Portuguese superstar took to social media to express his determination. The 40-year-old emphasized the importance of focus, posting: “Step by step. Full focus on our objective!”

Ronaldo is eager to not only help Al-Nassr finish atop the league standings but also to secure the top position in the Saudi Pro League goalscoring charts. Currently, he shares the lead with Julian Quinones of Al Qadsiah, each boasting 16 goals, while Al-Ahli’s Ivan Toney trails closely with 15 goals. Quinones has been in exceptional form this season and attributes his success to his teammates and coaching staff. He remarked, “As I said before, these are just numbers. The support of my teammates has been crucial in my fight for the golden boot. I owe everything to them and to the coaching staff. This is a result of our collective efforts. I am grateful for their support; however, the team’s success remains the priority.”

Ronaldo and Al-Nassr will seek another three points on Friday as they prepare to face Al-Kholood in the Saudi Pro League.
