Cristiano Ronaldo continued to show impressive scoring form in Al Nassr’s victory over Al Akhdoud.
On the morning of May 10, Al Nassr struggled to win against Al Akhdoud with a score of 3-2, in round 31 of Saudi Pro League 2023/24.
Goals from Marcelo Brozovic (7′) and Cristiano Ronaldo (15′) gave Al Nassr the lead in the first half. However, Al Akhdoud played very well after that and had 2 goals thanks to Hassan Al-Habib (60′) and Savior Godwin (70′).
Luckily for Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates, Brozovic proved to be the hero in this match, scoring with a brilliant volley in the 91st minute to seal victory for Al Nassr.
Notably, with his recent goal against Al Akhdoud, Ronaldo became the player with the most goals in the 2023/24 season (including both club and national team) with 53 goals in 53 matches.
Meanwhile, in second place is Kylian Mbappe, a French player who has a total of 49 goals this season for PSG and the French national team. Chasing right behind the 2018 World Cup champion is Harry Kane, who is close with 48 goals.
However, it should be noted that CR7 is playing in the Saudi Pro League – a tournament whose quality is inferior to Ligue 1 and Bundesliga. Therefore, the above parameters are only for entertainment purposes and cannot accurately assess the current level of Ronaldo and European players.
However, the fact that Ronaldo reached 53 goals despite being 39 years old proves this striker’s persistence and incredible desire to contribute.
Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates still have a chance in the Saudi Pro League title race after their recent victory. They are currently ranked second in the rankings with 77 points after 31 matches, 9 points behind Al-Hilal but have played 1 more match.
