While Ronaldo may not have had the season he predicted, that didn’t stop him from making history. In fact, the decorated player earned another badge of achievement after he scored an enviable 700th club goal of his career against Everton.
In other words, the Manchester United number 7 found the net with his 7th touch of the ball as his club won 2-1 in the Premier League, making him the first player in the world to score 700 goals in a club match.
The legendary 700 goals came from 944 games he played for Sporting Lisbon, Real Madrid, Juventus, and United. The Portugal international came on as a first-half substitute for Anthony Martial, with the match tied 1-1.
Ronaldo finally put United in front at the break after curling the ball past Casemiro, beating Everton’s Jordan Pickford at his near post. During his post-match interview, his United team-mate Bruno Fernandes said:
“It is difficult to still count goals for Ronaldo because every week seems like a new record. I am very happy that he has worked so hard to get this goal. Today he got a goal and a victory, and that is the most important thing for him. , that the team wins. “

The Blast noted that the unexpected moment touched Ronaldo, prompting him to upload an Instagram reel of soccer lovers from both teams united in sympathy for his family. To fully express her feelings, the star wrote:

Earlier this month, The Blast reported that Rodriguez had crushed his childhood goals and dreams. Besides being successful in her modeling career, the 28-year-old always dreamed of becoming a ballerina.
A feat he achieved recently if his social media post on October 2 is anything to go by. In a flurry of photos uploaded to Instagram, the model shows off her nature as a dancer.
While the first slide shows the mother-of-two stretching in a ballet pose inside the Royal Opera House, London, the next clip is a short clip featuring a ballet dancer swaying to the beat playing in the background.

Other slides feature a photo of the Argentine native posing outside the Royal Opera House, a photo of the venerable front entrance of the Royal Ballet School, a photo of the London skyline, an image of him in a red phone booth, and another photo of him on a train. Ronaldo’s longtime partner captioned the post, “Dreams come true [ballet shoes and a pink heart emoji].”
The quick reaction from fans and loved ones showed they poured a lot on Rodriguez’s talent, with personal trainer and entrepreneur Anna Lewandowska exclaiming, “omg!!!!!! Extraordinary [multiple fire emojis].” Other comments include fire, heart, love and clapping emojis.
