Cristiano Ronaldo reaches his 700th goal and thanks his former teammates

Cristiano Ronaldo has thanked everyone involved in his career as he scored his 700th goal through a penalty in Portugal’s 2-1 defeat to Ukraine in Kyiv on Monday. "Not just anyone can reach this figure," said the Portuguese superstar after the game. "Thank you to my teammates, colleagues and coaches who have helped me to become the player I am. I am disappointed that we didn't win but proud of the team.” About his records, he added: "How many records do I have? I don't know. I have to enjoy the moment and thank those who helped me reach this impressive mark. The last time I played at this ground I won the Champions League (against Liverpool in 2018), a beautiful moment that is in the past. Today we played well but couldn't win. Records come naturally - I don't go looking for them; records are looking for me! Without having an obsession, they happen naturally." The five-time Ballon d’Or winner had an incredible career at Manchester United and at Real Madrid, becoming one of the best players in the world, and currently, he continues his magnificent career at Juventus.
