After the match, the veteran claimed that he’s close to bringing down the curtain on his career and insisted he’s not focused on winning individual accolades.
‘I’m just enjoying playing football now as I know I don’t have much time left on the pitch,’ Ronaldo said.
‘It is not important to me now to be the best player or to win awards. What is important to me now is to enjoy and help my team’.
For his goal celebration, Ronaldo pointed to the sky after he scored his latest goal.
He dedicated his goal to his father after scoring on what would have been his 71st birthday.
His father Jose died aged 52 in 2005 of an alcohol-related liver condition when Ronaldo was 20 years old.
