Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo has made history by becoming the all-time leading scorer in professional football with 807 goals after a convincing hat-trick victory over Premier League rivals Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday (March 12).
FIFA does not hold the official record for most goals scored in all time in football, but the Austrian – Czech who played from 1931 to ’55. FIFA claims that player Joseph Beacon scored 805 goals.
Ronaldo’s 12th – minute opening goal at Old Trafford yesterday was an extraordinary, long – range strike, which helped him equalize the record. That equaled the record of 805 goals.
