Cristiano Ronaldo ended his silence on Friday after scoring his first hat-trick for Al-Nassr on Thursday, surpassing the milestone of 500 league goals. Ronaldo defeated Al-Wehda with four goals, achieving the milestone.

Ronaldo struggled at first in his new home after joining Al-Nassr in December when his tenure with Manchester United got cancelled.

In a 5-4 friendly loss against PSG, which triggered the fans, they ended up hating Ronaldo. The 38-year-old finally scored a brace for Riyadh XI but had yet to score for Al-Nassr.

In the team's previous game against Al-Fateh, he managed to break his duck. Ronaldo's goal, the comeback that ultimately saved the tie for his team, brought the game to a 2-2 draw.

With his goal on Thursday, Ronaldo would break the 500-goal mark for league goals. A record of 503 league goals have now been scored by the 38-year-old for five clubs in five different top-flight divisions.

The Portuguese star scored three goals for Sporting Lisbon, 81 for Juventus, 311 for Real Madrid, 103 for Manchester United, and 311. He now also has five for Al Nassr.

In a stunning victory for the team, Ronaldo stated, "Great feeling to have scored four goals and reached my 500th league goal."

This comment from the star on Instagram left the fans triggered. "Counting Saudi Arabia goals in the league as well as" and "against a team that's facing relegation in the Saudi League" are comments posted by some fans.
