It was Ronaldo&#8217;s 40th goal in the FIFA World Cup qualifiers, which saw him surpass Carlos Ruiz (39 goals) as the all-time top scorer.<\/p>\n<p>Former Guatemalan footballer Ruiz had set the record on 6 September 2016, scoring five goals in a 9-3 win over Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\udc9a\u2764\ufe0f Cristiano Ronaldo with a brace for Portugal, making it 948 career goals! \u2b50\ufe0f<\/p>\n<p>143 goals for the Portuguese national team. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/GJsPSssy40\">pic.twitter.com\/GJsPSssy40<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FabrizioRomano\/status\/1978182931098087780?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 14, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Ronaldo was not content with just one goal, however.

Dominik Szoboszlai scored in the first minute of added time to make it 2-2 in Lisbon.<\/p>\n<h2>Ronaldo&#8217;s Scoring Rate Defies Laws of Football Biology<\/h2>\n<p>Cristiano Ronaldo, who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/watch-cristiano-ronaldo-hat-trick-rio-ave-al-nassr\/\">scored a hat-trick<\/a> in Al-Nassr&#8217;s 4-0 friendly win over Rio Ave in August, has set a 1000-goal target for himself. Earlier this month, he said he still had &#8220;a lot to give to Portugal and football&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>As of October 2025, Ronaldo, 40, has scored 948 official goals across club and country, emerging as the all-time leading scorer in men&#8217;s football. For Portugal, he has been on target 143 times in 17,926 minutes of football across 225 appearances. This translates to a career scoring rate of 0.72 goals per 90-minute game.<\/p>\n<h3>Cristiano Ronaldo Scoring Rate by Age<\/h3>\n<p>Cristiano Ronaldo made his Portugal senior team debut at the age of 18 years, 6 months, and 15 days under Luiz Felipe Scolari. His first goal came in his eighth appearance, in a 2-1 defeat to Greece in the EURO 2004 opener.<\/p>\n<p>Before turning 20, Ronaldo played 18 games for Portugal, scoring seven goals. He clocked 1,130 minutes of football in that time, which took his scoring rate to 0.56 per game.<\/p>\n<p>Between the ages of 20 and 30, Ronaldo played 7,980 minutes across 101 matches for Portugal. He scored 45 goals for his country with a scoring rate of 0.51 goals per 90 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike most of his peers, Ronaldo did not explode in his 20s, at least in international football. He hit top gear after turning 30, and he has not stopped since.<\/p>\n<p>The former Real Madrid superstar played 8,145 minutes of football for Portugal across 98 matches between the ages of 30 and 40. He scored a whopping 83 goals with a scoring rate of 0.92.<\/p>\n<p>After turning 40, he has played 671 minutes of football in eight matches, scoring eight goals. Ronaldo is scoring at a rate of 1.07 goals per 90-minute match.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-66542\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/output-560x363.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"363\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/output-560x363.png 560w, https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/output-924x599.png 924w, https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/output-350x227.png 350w, https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/output-768x498.png 768w, https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/output-1536x997.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/output.png 1697w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 560px) 100vw, 560px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"su-table su-table-responsive su-table-alternate\"><\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th><strong>Age Range<\/strong><\/th>\n<th><strong>Goals<\/strong><\/th>\n<th><strong>Matches<\/strong><\/th>\n<th><strong>Minutes Played<\/strong><\/th>\n<th><strong>Goals per 90 mins<\/strong><\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Before 20<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>7<\/td>\n<td>18<\/td>\n<td>1,130<\/td>\n<td><strong>0.56<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>20 to 29<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>45<\/td>\n<td>101<\/td>\n<td>7,980<\/td>\n<td><strong>0.51<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>30 to 39<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>83<\/td>\n<td>98<\/td>\n<td>8,145<\/td>\n<td><strong>0.92<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>40+<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>8<\/td>\n<td>8<\/td>\n<td>671<\/td>\n<td><strong>1.07<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Total<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>143<\/td>\n<td>225<\/td>\n<td>17,926<\/td>\n<td><strong>0.72<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><\/div>\n<h2>How Many Goals Can Cristiano Ronaldo Score?<\/h2>\n<p>Since turning 30, Cristiano Ronaldo has played 106 games for Portugal, scoring a jaw-dropping 91 goals.
