Ronaldo’s goals meant more as they were enough to get the 35-year-old forward’s name in the history book. Below are the three milestones Cristiano Ronaldo reached with his goals against the visiting team on Saturday night.
1. Ronaldo Beats Ferenc Puskas’ Ranking In The All-Time Highest Goalscoring List
After he moved joint 4th on 746 career goals with Ferenc Puskas against Andorra during the international break, Ronaldo’s brace means he has pulled clear from his fellow Real Madrid legend in the all-time goalscoring charts.
Cristiano is now in fourth-place on 748 career goals behind Pele (767 goals), Romario (772 goals), and Josef Bican (805 goals). This means that only 57 goals stand between Ronaldo and Bican in the charts. And when you think of Ronaldo’s ruthlessness inside the box, it would only be a question of time until he becomes the highest goalscorer in history.
