Cristiano Ronaldo missed a penalty and another clear chance in Al-Nassr’s 1-0 win over Neom on Tuesday 20 October in the Saudi league. The two misses prevented him from reaching 982 career goals, La Nouvelle Tribune reports.
The Portuguese striker sent his penalty wide in first-half stoppage time, then missed a chance in front of an open goal early in the second half. João Félix scored the match’s only goal in the 61st minute.
Ronaldo remains the Champions League’s all-time leading scorer, with 140 goals in 183 matches. He also holds the record for most goals in a single edition, with 17 for Real Madrid in 2013-14.
La Nouvelle Tribune recalls these records as former Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag recently said that Ronaldo had failed to meet the English club’s expectations. Ten Hag had also accused him of letting Manchester United down in a statement published on 21 October.
