Ronaldo becomes top goal scorer of all-time as Juventus win 9th Italian Super Cup title

Cristiano Ronaldo, Juventus forward, has scored his 760th career goal during the Italian Super Cup final to become the top goal scorer of all-time.

On Wednesday night, Juventus defeated Napoli 2-0 to clinch a record 9th Italian Super Cup title, and on the 64th minute, the Portuguese star re-wrote the history record book when he opened the scoring at the Mapei Stadium in Reggio Emilia.

A corner was swung over and Napoli fluffed their lines, leaving Ronaldo with the perfect opportunity to thump into the net using his left foot.

Alvaro Morata doubled the Old Lady’s lead in the 95th minute of play to hand Andrea Pirlo’s side their 9th Supercoppa Italiana title.
