Only 47 goals away! Cristiano Ronaldo scored 953 goals with a penalty shot, and was complained about 4 penalty kicks in 8 rounds: the Saudi Super League champion was walked

In the 8th round of the Saudi Super League, Riyadh Victory defeated New Future City with a score of 3-1. After this game, Riyadh Victory led the standings with 8 consecutive victories in the league. It has not lost any game in the new season. Judging from the data, Riyadh's 8-game winning streak is still very convincing. In the 8 rounds of the league, it scored 26 goals, making it the team with the most goals in the league. It conceded 4 goals, which was the team with the fewest goals in the league. It also defeated many top-ranked teams including Jeddah United. Felix and Ronaldo also ranked at the top of the scorer list.

After scoring 1 goal against New Future City, Ronaldo's goal count has reached 953, leaving only 47 goals away from the 1,000-goal goal. Even if this goal cannot be achieved this season, there is a high probability that it can be achieved next season and become the first player in world football to exceed 1,000 goals. Even though he is over 40 years old, Ronaldo's scoring efficiency is still very good. He has performed well in all competitions this season. He scored 9 goals in 8 rounds of the league and 5 goals in 4 games in the World Cup preliminaries. However, such data still seems to be unconvincing to some fans.

Take the 9 goals scored in the Saudi League as an example. 3 of them were penalty kicks. In the 8 rounds of games, Ronaldo took 4 penalty kicks, making him the player with the most penalty kicks in the league. These penalty kicks have also helped Riyadh win on many occasions. For example, in the seventh round of the league against Al-Feha, it was Cristiano Ronaldo's penalty kick in the 104th minute that helped the team win the game. Although the penalty kick was not a big problem, there are still fans who believe that Cristiano Ronaldo and Riyadh Victory frequently get penalty kicks because the Saudi League "guaranteed the championship."

Whether it is a walk champion cannot actually just look at the penalty kick data. Riyadh Victory's overall strength this season has a clear advantage in Saudi Arabia. The arrival of Felix has given Riyadh Victory's frontcourt a real ball-holding core. The team's ways to win the game have also become richer. Ronaldo's chance to win a penalty kick has a lot to do with Felix. Moreover, being able to score a penalty kick when he gets a chance is also a proof of strength for a shooter. Ronaldo's shooter instinct is still there.

For Ronaldo, who is over 40 years old, the decline in physical condition is inevitable and irreversible. This is also very obvious on the court, but he can still be the best shooter in the Saudi League. This is undeniable. There are still 47 goals left to reach the goal of 1,000 goals in his career. This goal is not difficult for Ronaldo, who still has at least two years of contract. Even before the end of this season, he will not be too far away from this goal. It is only a matter of time to reach this goal next season, but this process still requires penalty kicks.
