Cristiano Ronaldo thiết lập 2 dấu mốc lịch sử khi giành danh hiệu Vua phá lưới Saudi Pro League 2023/24 sau trận Al-Nassr thắng Al-Ittihad.
Early this morning (May 28), Al-Nassr welcomed Al-Ittihad in the final round of the 2023/24 Saudi Pro League (round 34) and won 4-2. In this match, Cristiano Ronaldo scored 2 goals to put his team ahead 2-0. The other two goals for Al-Nassr were scored by Ghareeb and Al Nemer. The goals for Al-Ittihad were scored by Al Shamrani and Fabinho.
By scoring a brace, Cristiano Ronaldo has increased his goal tally in the Saudi Pro League this season to 35.
Thus, the 39-year-old forward clinches the Golden Boot of the 2023/24 Saudi Professional League with 7 goals more than the second-placed scorer Mitrović, the striker of Al-Hilal, who scored 28 goals.
Not only did Ronaldo win the Golden Boot, but he also broke the record for most goals scored in a single season in the Saudi Pro League.
Specifically, CR7 becomes the top scorer in a single season in the Saudi Professional League. The previous record was set by former Al-Nassr forward Hamdallah in the 2018/19 season (scoring 34 goals).
In addition, Cristiano Ronaldo has become the first player to win the Golden Boot in four different national leagues. Prior to the Saudi Pro League, Ronaldo had won this award in the English Premier League (once), La Liga (three times), and Serie A (once).
Despite personal success, Ronaldo faced team failure in the 2023/24 campaign. In the Saudi Pro League, Al-Nassr finished as runners-up, trailing behind champions Al-Hilal by 14 points (82 points compared to 96).
In addition to the Saudi Pro League, Ronaldo’s team also failed in the AFC Champions League and the Saudi Arabia Super Cup.
The only trophy Al-Nassr could potentially win this season is the King’s Cup. According to the schedule, Ronaldo and his teammates will face Al-Hilal in the King’s Cup final on June 1st.
