Ronaldo Defies Age With Spectacular Bicycle Kick

Rabat – Cristiano Ronaldo continues to defy age and expectations. At 40 years old, the Portuguese forward scored his 955th official career goal with a stunning bicycle kick in Al Nassr’s win over Al Khaleej. 

The strike resembled his famous overhead finish for Real Madrid against Juventus in the 2018 Champions League – a goal that reached nearly 2.8 meters off the ground and earned applause even from rival fans.

The match itself was one-sided. Al Nassr, coached by Jorge Jesus, dominated from the start. Joao Felix opened the scoring with a goal and an assist in the first half, setting the tone for their ninth straight victory in the Saudi Pro League.

The five-time Ballon d’Or winner had earlier chances denied by goalkeeper Moris, but he saved his best for last. 

In the stoppage time, when Al Khaleej was reduced to 10 men, he delivered the most memorable moment of the night: a perfectly executed bicycle kick that sealed the win and added another chapter to his legendary career. 

Cristiano Ronaldo’s journey to 935 career goals spans more than two decades across five clubs and the Portuguese national team. 

He began his career at Sporting CP, scoring five goals before moving to Manchester United, where he netted 145 goals across two spells and won every major title, including the Champions League. 

His greatest years came at Real Madrid, where he became the club’s all‑time top scorer with 450 goals, and won four Champions Leagues and four Ballon d’Or awards. 

At Juventus, he added 101 goals before a brief return to Manchester United. Now with Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia, he has already scored 106 goals and continues his record‑breaking run. With Portugal, he has scored more than 128 goals, making him the highest scorer in international football history.

The race to 1,000 goals has begun. No player has ever reached that mark, and Cristiano Ronaldo is getting closer to becoming the first. Each goal moves him closer to a record that may never be broken.
