Zee News
A first hattrick since returning to Manchester United last summer brings Ronaldo up to 807 career goals with numerous outlets crowning him as the highest ever goal-scorer in the history of men's football.
Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo etched his name in the record books as professional football’s all-time leading scorer with 807 goals after a brilliant hat-trick against Premier League rivals Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday (March 12).
The all-time top goal-scorer title in football is much contested and FIFA does not keep an official record, but the world governing body estimates that Austro-Czech Josef Bican netted 805 goals during a career that lasted from 1931 to ‘55.
Ronaldo’s 12th-minute opener at Old Trafford was a superb strike from distance that helped him equal the record.
OUT. OF. THIS. WORLD.
