Cristiano Ronaldo Shows No Signs of Slowing, Scores 500 Goals Beyond Thirty

Even at an age when most players contemplate retirement, Cristiano Ronaldo continues to defy the odds. The Portuguese superstar reached a remarkable milestone on Saturday night, becoming the first footballer over thirty to score more than 500 career goals, further cementing his legacy as one of the game’s greatest ever scorers.

Ronaldo’s latest feat came as Al-Nassr thrashed Al-Hazm 4-0 at home in the Saudi Pro League, reclaiming top spot in the Riyadh club’s campaign. The 41-year-old forward opened the scoring after just 13 minutes, finishing with composure from a Kingsley Coman assist to give Al-Nassr an early lead. With this goal, Ronaldo surpassed the 500-goal mark for players aged over 30—a record that underscores his enduring excellence on the pitch.

At the half-hour mark, Coman turned provider once again, setting up João Félix for Al-Nassr’s second goal. Ronaldo nearly added a second of his own before halftime, but a late first-half strike was ruled out for offside.

The second half saw Angelo Gabriel, the Brazilian winger, make a stunning solo run from midfield to score Al-Nassr’s third goal in the 77th minute. Just two minutes later, Ronaldo netted again, this time converting Coman’s precise pass inside the left side of the penalty area, demonstrating both power and accuracy. This brought his career tally to 964 goals across clubs and country, an astonishing figure that continues to grow.

Al-Nassr’s victory marked their eighth consecutive win in the Saudi Pro League. With 55 points from 22 matches, the Riyadh side has firmly established themselves at the summit of the league table, while Al-Hilal slipped to second place following a 1-1 draw against Al-Ittihad in another fixture on the same evening.
