The Art of the Free-Kick: Ronaldo\u2019s 899th Career Goal<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Scoring goals is second nature to Ronaldo, but free-kicks? That\u2019s an art form he has had a complicated relationship with in recent years. Once known for his thunderous free-kicks that left goalkeepers helpless, Ronaldo’s consistency in finding the back of the net from dead-ball situations had waned. But against Al-Feiha, the 39-year-old Portuguese superstar reminded everyone why he is still a force to be reckoned with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the match unfolded, Al-Nassr found themselves in a position to score from a set-piece just outside the penalty area. Ronaldo, with his characteristic focus, stepped up to take the free-kick. But this time, instead of opting for his usual power-driven approach, he chose finesse. With a measured stride and a calculated strike, Ronaldo sent the ball curling over the wall and into the top corner of the net. The placement was perfect, leaving Al-Feiha’s goalkeeper Abdulraouf Al-Duqayl rooted to the spot, utterly stunned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This goal not only showcased Ronaldo’s versatility but also brought his tally of free-kick goals to 64 in his career, with 53 of those coming in club football. Remarkably, this puts him just one shy of his long-time rival Lionel Messi\u2019s club-level free-kick tally. When it comes to international free-kicks, Ronaldo and Messi are neck and neck, with 11 goals each for their respective national teams.<\/p>\n\n\n

A Step Closer to the 900-Goal Milestone<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ronaldo’s 899th goal is not just a number; it’s a testament to his incredible longevity and consistency at the highest level of football. As he edges closer to the 900-goal mark, the football world watches with bated breath. In a recent interview, Ronaldo spoke candidly about his ambition to reach the elusive 1,000-goal milestone\u2014a feat that would cement his legacy as one of the greatest, if not the greatest, goal-scorers of all time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It’s going to be pretty tough, but it’s about seeing how I am mentally, my motivation. If, physically, my legs treat me as well as I treat them? We’ll see, they are small stages. Until I get to 1,000, first I have to get to 900. I think I’ll get there,” Ronaldo confidently stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His optimism is well-founded. With each passing game, Ronaldo continues to defy the odds, showcasing a level of performance that belies his age. “If you look at my career for the last 20 years, my level is high. If you are top for 20 years, it’s unbelievable. I do that and I continue to do that. For me, it’s a big achievement,” he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
