Cristiano Ronaldo ‘ageing like a fine wine’ after making good on promise made in 2022 with 61st career hat-trick


CRISTIANO RONALDO was back amongst the goals last night as he netted FOUR for Al-Nassr.

The 38-year-old netted his first Saudi Pro League goal last week, and has followed that up on it by putting four past Al-Wehda.

His latest collection of goals also sees him make good on a promise he made in April of last year.

While still at Manchester United, Ronaldo netted his 60th career hat-trick against Norwich, just over a month after hitting a hat-trick against Tottenham.

The milestone meant the ex-Real Madrid and Juventus ace had scored 30 hat-tricks before his 30th birthday and another 30 hat-tricks after turning 30.

Ronaldo took to Twitter to declare: “It’s time to unbalance the scale.”

Another fan looked to the future, remarking: “He said he’ll end his career at the top level, let’s hope he keeps that promise too👀.”

As ever with Ronaldo, he seems to break records or reach a milestone every time he scores.

His fourth goal yesterday entered Ronaldo into an exclusive club of players who have scored 500 club career league goals.

It also means he has now scored four or more goals in a match 11 times in his whole career.
