Cristiano Ronaldo has surpassed Lionel Messi to become the all-time leading scorer for Manchester United, and his goal against Al-Hilal on Saturday night is proof that he still has what it takes to score for one of Europe's top clubs.
Ronaldo was born on September 24, 1985, and he started his career at Sporting CP in Portugal before moving to Real Madrid in 2009. He then moved to Juventus in 2018, where he won two Serie A titles and two Champions League trophies. In June 2021, he signed for Manchester United,Saudi Pro League Focus where he has already scored 17 times this season.
In his time at Manchester United, Ronaldo has scored 176 goals in 219 appearances, which puts him ahead of both Messi (167 goals) and Neymar (131 goals). His latest goal against Al-Hilal came in the first leg of the Europa Conference League quarter-finals, and it was a stunning strike from outside the box that left the goalkeeper rooted to the spot.
Despite Ronaldo's success at Manchester United, he has not been able to win any major trophies since joining the club. However, he remains one of the greatest players of all time and continues to be a huge inspiration to many football fans around the world.
