It is not the first record that Cristiano breaks with goals, but it is certainly one of the greatest honors that this sport can give. From today, for everyone, the name of Ronaldo will be next to that of Pele, a sacred monster of football. Which will probably be overtaken shortly. The exact number of goals is subject to various interpretations and different counts, depending on the competitions considered: we at the Gazzetta count 767 goals. Numbers that make you pale. But CR7 is already looking forward: Romario is not far with 772 goals, and Josef Bican, at the top of the table, is at 805. The greatest goalscorers in football history: what matters are not so much the numbers, but the sense that these comparisons convey. If anything was needed, tonight the umpteenth confirmation has arrived: Cristiano Ronaldo reserves a place in the Olympus of the greatest ever.
