Cristiano Ronaldo gets his first goal in the Asian Champions League

The Portuguese forward showed he still had a nose for goal with a strike in the Asian continental competition.

Cristiano Ronaldo and his eye for goal are still as alive as ever. He confirmed this theory by scoring the only goal of the game - a delightful chip - in the first leg of the round of 16 match against Al Feiha in the Asian Champions League. On February 14, the top scorer in the history of soccer once again demonstrated his love for finding the back of the net.

‘CR7′ turned 39 years old on February 5 and today, on Valentine’s Day, he scored his first goal of the year, meaning he has registered at least one goal every year between 2002 and 2024. As well as this, he has now scored in two Champions League qualifiers in different continents (Europe and Asia).

He finished 2023 as the top scorer of the year in all competitions, ahead of players such as Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappé, now, he has 31 goals and 11 assists during the 32 games he has played with Al Nassr during the current season.

Talking about Cristiano Ronaldo is synonymous with success and glory within football, as the Portuguese star never tires of breaking records game after game. “I’ll say when I’m done,” he declared on social media as he finished 2023 as the top scorer in the sport.

As if that wasn’t enough, in addition to scoring the only goal and the winner against Al Feiha, he played his 1,000th match at club level. Now, Luis Castro’s squad is aiming to build on today’s achievement and advance in the Asian Champions League, while in the Saudi Arabian league they are looking to close the gap on Neymar’s Al-Hilal.
