“Records come naturally, as you know. I don’t break records. Records are what haunt me,” Ronaldo told the RTP channel.
– That’s why I’m happy. But for me, the most important thing is to emphasize teamwork. After what we did at the Euros, we had to leave a good mark, and that’s what we did – said the star.

The world’s top scorer for national teams and the all-time top scorer in official matches, Cristiano Ronaldo admits that he wants to reach 1,000 goals. And he doesn’t care about his age. With 131 goals for Portugal, he says that the lack of a World Cup trophy doesn’t bother him. According to the star, Euro 2016 filled that void.
“Portugal winning a Euro is equivalent to winning a World Cup,” said Cristiano.
– I have already won two trophies for Portugal, any more will be spectacular. I am not motivated by these reasons, I want to enjoy football, every moment – guarantees the number 7.
Next Sunday, Portugal will host Scotland, and Cristiano Ronaldo will begin his pursuit of his thousandth goal. The star is trying to think about the journey one game at a time and is not predicting when he will reach that milestone. But he knows that his career is in its final stages.
– It’s difficult, I try to implement in my life, day by day, to live the moment in a positive way. A happy moment, to enjoy every moment of football, because I know it’s coming to an end. I’m not going to lie, one, two, three more years, I don’t know. It will depend a lot on my head, my motivation, my physical condition. And it’s like I said, it’s about enjoying every moment. I’m not going to plan for the long term, I don’t do that in my life anymore, it’s for the short term.
