Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 800 career goals at club and international level, racking up the incredible milestone number in Manchester United’s Premier League clash with Arsenal.

Already with far more official strikes than goalscoring icon Pele, Ronaldo swept home the 800th of a historic career in front of the Stretford End at Old Trafford with his first of the night after being fed by Marcus Rashford early in the second half.

It was Ronaldo’s 11th goal for United since returning to the club in August. He scored 118 during his first spell in Manchester from 2003 to 2009, when he first established himself as a world class player, a club record 450 for Real Madrid, 101 for Juventus, five for first senior side Sporting CP while a teenager and a world record 115 in men’s international football for Portugal.

Ronaldowasn’t initially a striker when he started out. He began as a tricky winger and it was his fourth season as a professional when he reached double figures in a single campaign.

From there, the Portuguese superstar exploded into life. He droveManchester Unitedto the 2006/07 Premier League title in a breakthrough season, scoring 23 in all competitions, before getting 42 the following year, a feat that underpinned his first Ballon d’Or in 2008.
