Cristiano Ronaldo continued his brilliance with Al-Nasr, and scored two goals in his team’s 2-0 victory over Damak in the 12th round of the Saudi League.
The first goal for the Don was in the 17th minute from a penalty kick, then he ended Damak’s chances of a comeback with the second goal in the 78th minute.
Ronaldo raised his tally of goals in his career to 915 goals, and continues to strive for his biggest goal currently by reaching goal number 1000 before retiring.
The double against Damak gives Ronaldo the opportunity to get closer and closer to the current top scorer in the Saudi League, Aleksandar Mitrovic.
The Don broke the partnership with Nkoudou and Abdullah Al Salem, and surpassed Karim Benzema by reaching the ninth goal in second place among the scorers.
The lead remains in the hands of Mitrovic, who has scored 12 goals so far, and will play with Al-Hilal against Al-Shabab on Saturday.
Overall, Ronaldo has reached his 20th goal this season, whether with Al-Nassr or Portugal, in addition to 4 assists.
The 39-year-old has an exceptional record, as he has scored 452 goals since he turned 30!
It remains to be noted that Al-Nassr’s victory over Damac raised its score to 25 points in third place, 4 points behind Al-Hilal and 5 behind the leader Al-Ittihad, with one less match for both teams.
