“Acceptance is a virtue,” wrote the captain of the National Team in response to a post about six goals in a competition not officially recognized by FIFA.
967 or 961? The doubt about the goals scored by Cristiano Ronaldo throughout his more than two decades of career has been raised in recent days. At the heart of the matter are six accurate shots by the Al Nassr forward in the Arab Club Champions Cup in 2023.
Al Nassr won the trophy and Ronaldo was the top scorer, but FIFA does not recognize the tournament as official. The doubt regarding the nature of these six goals has sparked controversy… and the Portuguese forward was not indifferent.
Cristiano Ronaldo ironically commented on a post from a Brazilian fan page on the subject: “Acceptance is a virtue.” The doubt has not yet been resolved, but the Portuguese forward has already taken a position that brings him closer to the much-desired 1000 goals.
