Happy Birthday CR7: 3 Cristiano Ronaldo records that will be difficult to break

It’s true that star footballer Cristiano Ronaldo seems to break and smash football records each and every week, whether they are at the club or international level.

Notably, at 39 years old, most athletes start to falter and think about retiring; however, Cristiano Ronaldo continues to excel at his peak and shows no symptoms of breaking down.

In addition, the Portuguese icon has numerous records under his belt, but some are more remarkable than others.

However, the 39-year-old legend boasts a number of remarkable milestones that are almost impossible for a future football superstar to surpass.

1. Cristiano Ronaldo winning every individual and team honour with two clubs

Cristiano Ronaldo has won the World Player of the Year, Golden Boot, Ballon d’Or, Domestic League, domestic cup, domestic super cup, domestic league, and Champions League at two different clubs. However, his rival, Lionel Messi, accomplished this at Barcelona over his remarkable career.

Notably, it is hard enough to achieve this at one club, so it poses the issue of whether anyone else in the future will be able to do it as well, considering that, of all the legends the game has produced, only Ronaldo has been able to accomplish this feat.

However, it is unimaginable how any player would surpass this incredible record set by the Portuguese in the near future, and it is appropriately the most challenging record of his to break.

2. Cristiano Ronaldo scoring 50 goals for 6 consecutive seasons in a Top-5 league

The Portuguese player’s record as the fastest player to reach 300 La Liga goals is not only an indication of his exceptional goal-scoring ability. However, it is really remarkable that he has been able to score 50 goals in a single campaign in a top league for six consecutive seasons.

Meanwhile, Lionel Messi has only been able to accomplish this consistently for three seasons, which makes his accomplishment even more remarkable.

It’s true that it’s amazing to score 50 goals in just one campaign, but it’s unimaginable to do so six times in consecutive seasons at the highest level of football.

Ronaldo’s six consecutive seasons where he hit at least 50 goals:

10/11: 54 apps 53 goals

11/12: 55 apps 60 goals

12/13: 55 apps 55 goals

13/14: 47 apps 51 goals

14/15: 54 apps 61 goals

15/16: 48 apps 51 goals

3. Scoring more than 10 Champions League goals in 7 consecutive seasons

The Portuguese superstar contributes at his peak in the Champions League, as can be seen by the multiple records he holds in the most renowned club competition.

Notably, his record of seven consecutive seasons with more than ten goals per season in the Champions League is the strongest testament to his dominance among all of his accomplishments.
