Ronaldo Receives The Rushen League Top Scorer Award

Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo received the Saudi Roshan League top scorer award for the 2023-2024 season. Ronaldo confirmed his position as one of the most prominent players in the history of football, after he did it repeatedly in different competitions, until he became the only player to be crowned with the Golden Shoe in 4 different leagues. Ronaldo, who joined the Saudi Roshan League in early January 2023, gave an exceptional performance in the 2023-2024 season, breaking records, by scoring 35 goals, which is the highest number of goals in the history of the league for one season. He also added 11 assists, bringing his total contributions to 46 goals (also the highest in the history of the competition). Ronaldo recorded the best scoring rate in the season among all players who scored more than one goal (141 players), at a rate of one goal every about 75 minutes. Ronaldo achieved the fastest goal in reaching the 20th goal, equaling Abdul Razzaq Hamdallah’s record of scoring 20 goals in the fewest number of matches (20 matches), and this number comes after Omar Al Somah’s record, which he scored in 18 matches. One of Ronaldo's most prominent moments of the season came when he scored a hat-trick from outside the penalty area, becoming the second player to achieve this achievement in the history of the Saudi Professional League after Yasser Al-Qahtani. In total, Ronaldo scored the hat-trick in 4 matches during the season, equaling the historic number of “scoring hat-tricks” recorded by Moroccan Abdel Razzaq Hamdallah with his former team Al-Nasr in the 2018-2019 season.
