On May 13, in the Serie A, Cristiano Ronaldo become the fastest player in Juventus history to score 100 goals for the club. He reached the mark by netting a goal just before half-time in the match against Sassuolo. Cristiano Ronaldo and Paulo Dybala both scored their 100th goal for Juventus in a 3-1 win over Sassuolo to keep their Champions League hopes alive. 36-year-old Ronaldo showed his athleticism as he controlled Adrien Rabiot’s header with a fine first touch prior and then beating goalkeeper Andrea Consigli with his second.

With this win, Juventus move up to fifth, one point behind fourth-placed Napoli and three behind AC Milan and Atalanta. They will now face Inter Milan and Bologna in their final two fixtures. Tonight’s defeat leaves Sassulo at the eighth position.

The Portugal star has netted 100 goals in 131 games for Juventus and has become the first Juventus player to ever do so. He achieved this incredible feat in less than three seasons.  Club legends Roberto Baggio and Omar Enrique Sivori both needed four seasons to score 100 goals for Juventus, while it took the club’s all-time leading scorer Alessandro Del Piero eight seasons to hit a century.

Cristiano Ronaldo had already 100-plus goals under his name for Spanish giants Real Madrid and Premier League heavyweights Manchester United. Ronaldo’s 100th strike for Juventus makes him the first player in the history of the beautiful game to score a century of goals for three different clubs in three different countries and his national team. Ronaldo scored 118 goals for Manchester United and as many as 450 strikes for the Los Blancos. The 36-year-old is leading Juventus’ fight in the Serie A almost single-handedly this season. The five-time UEFA Champions League winner is also the all-time top scorer of Europe’s biggest competition at club level with 134 goals.
