In the early morning of September 6, Ronaldo shined to help Portugal defeat Croatia 2-1 in the UEFA Nations League.

In the 34th minute of the match against Croatia, when Portugal was leading 1-0, Cristiano Ronaldo ran to receive a cross from the left wing by Nuno Mendes, before accurately tapping the ball into the net, giving goalkeeper Livakovic no chance to block.

Ronaldo officially reached the milestone of 900 goals in his career, an achievement that no other player in history has achieved. After scoring, CR7 collapsed on the field in emotion. Before that, the superstar born in 1985 shared that the milestone of 900 goals was truly meaningful. This will give him more motivation to aim for 1,000 goals in his career.

For a normal player, their form will decline when they turn 30. However, Ronaldo is an exception. According to ESPN, since turning 30, the Portuguese superstar has scored a total of 437 goals, a number that is even more than the entire careers of many famous strikers such as Didier Drogba, Thierry Henry or Wayne Rooney.

Portugal’s two goals in the first half both had the mark of stars, former Man Utd stars. In the opening goal in the 7th minute, Bruno Fernandes assisted Diogo Dalot to score from close range.

Dalot scored the opening goal but also scored an own goal at the end of the first half, helping Croatia enter the break with the hope of winning points.

In the second half, fans witnessed an attractive duel between the two teams. Ronaldo was still active. He was present at most of the hot spots and sparked many attacks for the home team. The tireless running of the Al Nassr striker made many fans forget that he will turn 40 in the next few months.

On the other hand, Croatia also had a few chances but did poorly in finishing, thereby accepting a 1-2 defeat to the home team.

In the next match on September 8, Portugal will face Scotland, while Croatia will face Poland.
