Cristiano Ronaldo scored a 92nd-minute goal in Juventus’ 3-1 win over Sassuolo to make him the most successful player of all time.
The goal that brought Ronaldo level showed the goal instinct and hard work of the Portuguese superstar. Even with the game seemingly won, he still wanted to move on and score another goal.
The late goal tied him with Czech Republic legend Josef Bican with 759 goals.
The record set by Biscan lasted more than 65 years. But now it looks like Ronaldo is on his way to becoming the most successful player of all time.
Distribution of CR7 objectives
Ronaldo’s goals have been split between four clubs and his country.
Cristiano Ronaldo started his career in Portugal and the first five of his goals came at Sporting Lisbon.
He established himself as one of the best in the world at Manchester United and scored 118 goals in English football.
The majority of his goals have come from his time at Real Madrid, he has scored 450 goals in his spell at Galactico and won three successive Champions Leagues.

In a shock move to the 33-year-old Juventus, some people thought Ronaldo would start to decline, but he has proven the skeptics wrong by scoring 84 goals since 2018.
Throughout his career he was the main man of Portugal, even as a teenager he was extremely important to the team. Now captain and leader of the national team, he scored 102 goals in 170 caps and won a European Championship.

Is Ronaldo the GOAT?
As a youngster, Ronaldo was a mercurial winger who tore through defenses with his silky skills. Today, he is one of the most complete players on the planet and a ruthless goalscorer.
Ronaldo added another record to an incredible collection of accomplishments he has accumulated throughout his career.

Some wonder if Ronaldo broke the record in the same way Messi’s club record did last week. Yet, record or not, scoring 759 career goals is a magnificent feat.
There is no doubt that Ronaldo is firmly in the GOAT debate and this record is just another example of how he is one of the best players the game has ever seen.
