Cristiano Ronaldo has hailed himself as the greatest player in football history in a recent ‘lie detector test’ interview
Cristiano Ronaldo was asked if he is the greatest goalscorer in football history in a recent lie detector test conducted by Binance. The test proved that he was telling the truth, and the Portuguese agreed.
Ronaldo, one of the sport’s most complete players, is an exceptional goal scorer. With 850 goals for club and country, he is football’s all-time leading scorer. The Portugal captain has also scored the most goals in men’s international football (123) and club football (727).
In front of goal, he has been a force to be reckoned with for whatever side he has played for. As a result, the statistics show that Ronaldo is the best goalscorer of all time. When asked about it, Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t mince words, and his response proved out to be correct.
This season, the 38-year-old superstar has also been on fire for Al-Nassr. In four games in the Saudi Pro League, he has six goals. His goal total for the season is 12 from 10 games across competitions.

What Does Ronaldo Think About Goalscoring?
While Cristiano Ronaldo has always been a dangerous goal scorer, he, like every other player, has had dry times. Some people may become overly concerned if they do not routinely find the back of the net. That is not the situation with Ronaldo.
His Portugal colleague Diogo Jota also struggled for Liverpool during the 2022-23 season. He remembered Ronaldo comparing goals to ketchup.
Ronaldo once remarked that goals are like ketchup, and once you get the first drop, everything else becomes easy. According to Jota (through GOAL):
“That’s one of the sentences Ronaldo said, and it really stuck in my mind all these years. I think football is unpredictable, and these are the things we like in this football game. Things can change very quick.”
Given that Ronaldo is the most prolific scorer in football history and has been successful for several teams, his words are invaluable to newcomers.
