Juventus , the last season’s Serie A winners lift the Supercoppa Italiana for the record ninth time, after their 2-0 win against rivals Napoli, who were last season’s Coppa Italia winner, courtesy of the goals by Cristiano Ronaldo and Alvaro Morata . Besides winning his 4th trophy in Italy, Cristiano Ronaldo overtakes Bican to become football’s highest-ever goalscorer. The Portuguese superstar scores his 760th official goal against Napoli. Cristiano’s official goals tally started while at Sporting CP, and the goal which made him the highest goalscorer ever, a record which might be very difficult to break for anyone in the upcoming years was scored for Juventus, and besides this, his illustrious trophy cabinet added yet another trophy to it.
The title of the greatest goalscorer is much disputed and according to Reuters, global governing body FIFA does not keep an official record of it. However, it has been reported that Ronaldo has gone past Austro-Czech Josef Bican’s tally of 759 official goals. Lionel Messi is not much behind with 719 competitive goals and counting.
Currently the official goal’s tally looks like this:-
- Cristiano Ronaldo- 760
- Josef Bican- 759
- Pele- 757
- Romario- 743
- Messi- 719
- Puskas- 706
Ronaldo now has 85 goals overall for Juventus and has won 4 trophies ( 2 Serie A and 2 Supercoppas) with them, however, his aim of winning the Champions League with them might increase this number and also increase the all-time official goals tally.
