Cristiano Ronaldo continues to prove that age is just a number. Even at 40, his hunger for goals remains as fierce as ever. In a recent Saudi Pro League match for Al Nassr against Al Hazm, Ronaldo scored in the 88th minute, taking his career tally to an incredible 950 goals a number that cements his place in football history.
After the match, Ronaldo wrote on social media, “Happy to help the team win and proud to reach 950 goals! Still hungry for more!” His words perfectly capture his undying passion and determination to keep achieving, no matter how much he has already accomplished.
While his family has urged him to consider retirement, Ronaldo remains resolute. “My family says I’ve done everything in football, that it’s time to stop. But I know I still have something to give. Maybe not for many more years, but I want to enjoy every moment I have left,” he said.
He now takes things one day at a time focusing on each training session, each match, and making the most of every opportunity. This mindset has made him one of the most inspiring athletes in the world, still performing at the highest level when most would have hung up their boots.
Ronaldo’s next goal is crystal clear: reaching the 1,000-goal milestone. With just about 50 more goals to go, the football world eagerly waits to see if the Portuguese legend can make history once again.
As Ronaldo himself puts it, “Every moment counts now. As long as my body allows, I’ll play
and I’ll score.” Truly, he stands as a living legend proving that passion, perseverance, and purpose can defy time itself.
