Cristiano Ronaldo, the answer!

In the turmoil in Portugal, where he is in conflict with coach Jorge Jesus, Cristiano Ronaldo found a smile again by scoring with Al-Nassr.

For Cristiano Ronaldo, it is a return to a reform of normality. The Portuguese striker is coming out of a pretty terrible week, marked by his departure from the Seleçao, and his proven conflict with coach Jorge Jesus. He found a smile again with his club Al-Nassr, in a much more favorable context.

While several media relayed the high probability of a sanction against him from the Portuguese federation, only a few hours ago, the five-time Ballon d’Or did not tremble to open the scoring during his team’s match against Al-Diriyah, in the Saudi championship.

The 980th goal for CR7

After a lot of work from Kingsley Coman, and a left shot pushed back by the goalkeeper, Cristiano Ronaldo followed up to score (23rd). Al-Nassr will end up winning 3-0, with goals from Samu Costa (35th) and Coman (77th).

For “CR7”, it is the 980th career goal. And if he no longer has the selection, the quest for 1000 goals will undoubtedly become his ultimate objective.
