Ronaldo opened the scoring in the 22nd minute from an Angelo corner, powering a downward header past the keeper as Al Nassr beat Abha 2-1 in the Saudi Pro League. Abdullah Al-Hamdan added a second before Nabil Fekir's late reply, lifting Al Nassr to 15 points and top of the table alongside Al Hilal and Al Qadsiah.
The milestone leaves Ronaldo just 21 goals from 1,000 in competitive senior football; he earned man-of-the-match and posted 'Hard work pays off,' while fans praised his athletic leap as 'insane' for his age.
