Cristiano Ronaldo continues to be one of the best players in the world.
Cristiano Ronaldo is already 39 years old and plays for Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia. Although millions of fans think that the Portuguese still had the level to continue in Europe, the reality is that Ronaldo decided to put all that aside and preferred to play in a more relaxed environment.
Regardless of the fact that he is now in Asia, away from media pressure, Cristiano Ronaldo has had an enviable career and his track record backs it up. Now, a Cristiano Ronaldo stat in the UEFA Champions League has come to light, which places him much better than Neymar, Messi and Mbappé.
This is the number of goals scored in knockout stage matches of the UEFA Champions League, that is, from the round of 16 to the final. If we add the goals of Kylian Mbappé, Lionel Messi and Neymar Jr in those stages, the total is 57. On the other hand, Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 68, alone.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s words about the Saudi Pro League:
“The league is very good, but I think we have many opportunities to continue growing. The league is competitive. We have very good teams, very good Arab players. But they need to improve the infrastructure a little more. Even the referees, the VAR system, should be a little faster. I think other little things need to improve. But I am happy here, I want to continue here and I will continue here. “If they continue with the work they want to do over the next five years, the Saudi league can be one of the five best in the world.”
