Arsenal goal Tiago Tomas has replaced Cristiano Ronaldo in the record books with his last goal for Sporting Lisbon this weekend, O Jogo reported.
This is a record that Ronaldo cannot regain, unless the Juventus superstar finds a way to bend the essence of time to his will.
And while we don’t completely rule that out at this stage, what Ronaldo wants Ronaldo to generally get after all, CR7 will simply have to accept the latest star to rise through the ranks at the Estadio José Alvalade, who has improved his achievements from that great campaign. in 2002/03.

A toothy, curly-haired Ronaldo scored five times that season.
Tomás, however, has gone one step further, scoring his sixth in Sporting’s 1-0 win over Tondela on Saturday.
According to O Jogo, 18-year-old Tomás is the youngest player to score six goals in a single season for the Lisbon giants since 1984.
“He is an intelligent and balanced young man who has the quality and characteristics to play in various positions,” Sporting coach Rubén Amorim told A Bola.

“He is a player who is not very tall or strong in physical terms but he is intelligent in his positioning, he is a great help for the team when he does not have the ball and has tremendous defensive availability.”
Arsenal lost a young Ronaldo 18 years ago and it seems they are desperate to prevent history from repeating itself.
According to The Sun, Arsenal are on the verge of closing a £ 20 million summer contract for Tomas. The Portugal Under-21 international has a £ 52 million release clause in his contract but, amid a worrying financial situation, Sporting is apparently willing to accept a much lower fee.
The road has cooled in recent weeks, but if Tomás follows in Ronaldo’s footsteps with a big move to England long before his 20th birthday, he will leave as a modern legend.
Tomás’ win on Saturday means Sporting are on the brink of the title, their first since 2001/02, when Ronaldo was simply a teenage pony desperate to make his mark.
