Portuguese star player Cristiano Ronaldo who has reached at his career peak now aims 900 goal targets. He shared his thought after his 3-2 win over Slovakia in the qualifying match for Euro 2024. Ronaldo scored a first-half penalty and a second half tap-in as the Portuguese made its seven wins from seven matches in Group J.

He said that he is enjoying the moment and feels good physically. “I am enjoying the moment, which is good, I feel good, my body is responding to what I have given it over the last few years. I am happy both in the national team and at club level. I”ve scored a lot of goals and I feel good physically,” Cristiano told reporters after the Portugal match, says Marca.

The 38-year-old was challenged by Porto president Jorge Nuno Pinto da Costa to score 1,000 goals before he retires. However, Ronaldo said his target is to net 900 goals before hanging up his boots.

The two winning goals of Portugal came from the boots of Al Nassr star which took him on to 125 goals in 202 international caps for Selecao das Quinas. The Al Nassr superstar has bagged 726 goals in 979 club appearances. That takes him to a total of 851 goals in 1181 appearances for club and country.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s victory over Slovakia on Friday secured their qualification for the next European championship and assured that the team he captained had “a very good qualifying phase” with seven victories in seven matches.

And now he becomes the first player to be qualified for their sixth UEFA European championship.
