CRISTIANO RONALDO is the ninth most decorated footballer in history behind the likes of Lionel Messi and Dani Alves.
The Portuguese ace landed the 33rd trophy of his career as Juventus beat Napoli to win the Italian Super Cup on Wednesday.
Cristiano Ronaldo is three trophies behind rival Lionel Messi
Ronaldo, 35, bagged his 760th career goal when he opened the scoring in the second half.
The former Manchester United star cradled the trophy in his arms after the match ended 2-0.
But he has a long way to go until he is dubbed the most decorated footballer in history.
Barcelona icon Dani Alves holds that title after winning 42 trophies during his career.
Andres Iniesta and former Brazilian defender Maxwell are level in second with 37.
Messi, who has spent his entire career at Barcelona, is three clear of Ronaldo.
Ryan Giggs, Kenny Dalglish, Gerard Pique, Victor Baia are also ahead of the Juve ace.
Ronaldo and Co have a mountain to climb if they want to win the Serie A title this season.

As things stand, the Italian giants are slumped at fifth with just nine wins from 17 games.
They are ten points behind league leaders AC Milan with one game in hand.
Ronaldo has scored 15 goals and made two assists in 14 top-flight matches this season.
But there has been some confusion around whether he is the game’s all-time top goalscorer.
Some fans now have the five-time Ballon d’Or winner one goal ahead of Czech legend Josef Bican.
However, official Fifa figures have 1940-50s goal-machine Bican on 805 strikes – still 45 ahead of Ronaldo.
