Ronaldo’s century quest

Post by forestfan »

On 93 international goals... looks certain to become the first player from a top level nation to register a ton. Luxembourg tonight, surely a chance to get within three or four?

Only one, he’ll be disappointed with that...

Sod 100 international goals, he is looking at 700 career goals first.

Still a smarmy git with a crap statue and bad hair.

Messi is hot on his heels with that one as well. Pele’s 1000 goals claim was dubious, with a fair few of them seemingly scored on the beach or in the back garden with his grandad in goal, or something like that... it’s not implausible that one of these two could end up the highest officially verified scorer of all time.

And he’s done it, with one more for good measure. Eight off the Iranian Ali Daei’s world record, though I doubt he scored too many against top ranked opposition...

Now out on his own at 120… though Messi has moved to 99 and gets the chance to join him in the 100 Club along with the Iranian gatecrasher, when Argentina play Curacao (isn’t that the blue stuff they put in cocktails?) next week.

Ronaldo also set to be the first man to win 200 caps. He’d swap 199 of them for Messi’s World Cup medal, of course…
