Cristiano Ronaldo reacts to his 770 official career goals.

Ronaldo has placed himself at the top of the world's goalscoring list.

ESPN FC

He scored a perfect hat-trick inside 32 minutes as Juventus bounced back from their midweek Champions League exit by beating Cagliari 3-1 away in Serie A on Sunday.

The 36-year-old striker found the net with a header, a right-footed penalty and a left-foot shot and celebrated by pointing to his ear in an apparent response to recent criticism, hitting his 57th career hat-trick.

Sporting Lisbon - 5 goals
Manchester Utd - 118 goals
Real Madrid CF - 450 goals (highest in club history)
Juventus - 95 goals
Portugal - 102 goals (highest for the selecao)

The last few weeks were filled with news and stats considering me the World’s Top Scorer in football history, overcoming Pelé’s 757 official goals. Although I’m thankful for that recognition, now it’s time for me to explain why I didn’t acknowledge that record until this moment.

My everlasting and unconditional admiration for mister Edson Arantes do Nascimento, such as the respect that I have for mid-20th century football, led me to take into account his 767 score, assuming his 9 goals for São Paulo State Team, as well as his single goal for the Brazilian Military Team, as official goals. The World as changed since then and football as changed as well, but this doesn’t mean that we can just erase history according to our interests.

Today, as I reach the 770.º official goal in my professional career, my first words go straight to @pele . There’s no player in the World who hasn’t been raised listening to stories about his games, his goals and his achievements, and I’m no exception. And for that reason, I’m filled with joy and pride as I acknowledge the goal that put’s me on top of the World’s goalscoring list, overcoming Pelé’s record, something that I could never have dreamed of while growing up as a child from Madeira.

Thanks to all of those who took part of this amazing journey with me. To my teammates, to my opponents, to the fans of the beautiful game all over the World and, above all, to my family and close friends: trust me when I say that I couldn’t have done it without you.

Now I can’t wait for the next games and challenges! The next records and trophees! Believe me, this story is still far from being over. The future is tomorrow and there’s still a lot to win for Juventus and Portugal!

Join me in this journey! Let’s go! ����

Cristiano Ronaldo


Pele greets CR7:

@cristiano , life is a solo flight. Each makes his own journey. And what a beautiful journey you are having! I admire you a lot, I love watching you play and this is no secret to anyone. Congratulations on breaking my record of goals in official matches. My only regret is not being able to give you a hug today. But I leave this photo in your honor, with great affection, as the symbol of a friendship that has existed for many years.

Edson Arantes do Nascimento (Pele)

Hurray to the legend!

congrats to a goal machine..too bad ur goals don't come when needed..
this 3 goals would have helped juve assuming it came during the UCL against Porto..
we all know he would surely score goals in Turin but winning the UCL for juve is almost impossible bcoz dt juve bad squad isnt ready for "mr new challenge"
maybe he needs to try his luck in PSG next season or he stays in juve and continue padding his stats with goals from the league and forget about the UCL..

fergie001:
Yes, you are.

nobody follow am argue dt wan...wetin we wan hear na when him go win the UCL with Juve..
or the new challenge dt made him move to italy was just to score goals? I thought it was to win the UCL with them?
jive were already winning the league consecutively b4 he came and this season it seems juve are already losing their normal birthright..
because it seems juve would end the season as a bad one bt no problem bcoz ur god cr7 is padding stats with goals...
call me when he wins the UCL he promised....DTS d new challenge u all were shouting when dt move was made..

jive were already winning the league consecutively b4 he came and this season it seems juve are already losing their normal birthright..
if Juve finish dis season without the UCL and the scudetto, dts would spell doom for them n its 2 steps backwards and drastic decisions would be made, maybe selling cr7..

All this epistle because of 770?


He has won the UCL with Man Utd & RM....When will Messi win it with City or PSG nah?

If only Messi had been scoring his penalties accurately, he would have gotten up to 2000 goals.

I remember very vividly the Copa America final in 2016 I watched alongside my brother JidennaJason and ghettokid1, against Chile.

I remembered Messi sending his PK outside the stadium, we had to pick the ball at Abonnema, or is it his S/final gift against Chelsea in 2012?

Check up again....I have edited it properly

amazing feat.
I fear this guy may play ball till he is 50years old.

What yeye drastic decision?? The worst would be to relieve @CR7 of his job at Juve. And one fact you and I know is that, he'll still get offers from across Europe. With Pirlo still at the helms of affairs, adding Messi, Halland and even Mbape to that Juve team still won't bring them the UCL. That guy (Pirlo) is still a baby when it comes to coaching on the big stage and that, my friend, was Juve's greatest undoing.

ORORO!!!

U gas lighter....so the goals he scored yesterday were not needed...or the one the has been scoring winning titles were not needed... well , how often does Messi score needed goals...nobody scores needed goals in football than Ronaldo...if u hv no reasonable thing to say ,stay off his thread... bad belle ...it pains u so much when he shames u haters

When I was growing up. In current affairs, I use to see Pele scored over 1100 goals. FIFA are truly corrupt.

Kingcalls:

Now u sound not intelligent... so because he dint score against Porto, he has failed?? Is that what ur little mind tells u?? So the goals he scored against lyon last year, ajax and atletico in the knock ours 2 yrs ago is what?? Despite being the only juve scorer to hv scored in a knock out round in 2 straight seasons ... but ur messi that just had his first goal in 6 yrs in a final game that he gets knocked out is a success to u... messi fans are sick psychopaths

Just like pele played lesser games compared to Messi when Messi broke his single club goals record
