Ronaldo's 1,000-Goal Quest Builds Steam

Cristiano Ronaldo, Al Nassr's star, continues his chase toward the 1,000-goal milestone across his club and Portugal.

Ronaldo took another step, reaching goal 958 after scoring a penalty against Al Qadsiah, as Al Nassr lost 1-2 in Round 14 of the Saudi Roshen League.

Ronaldo tops the Roshen Saudi League scoring chart with 14 goals, one ahead of his teammate and fellow Portuguese Joao Felix.

Al Nassr stumbled in the last three rounds of the Roshen Saudi League, drawing with Al Ettifaq, then losing to Al Ahli Jeddah and Al Qadsiah.

Al Nassr sits on 31 points in second place in the Roshen Saudi League, four points behind leaders Al Hilal.

He shoots, he scores, and the net signs a contract extension.

Ronaldo's goal clock runs so fast, it needs an hourglass.
