Ronaldo's 978th career goal was stolen by a teammate.

Cristiano Ronaldo scored his 978th career goal during a match between Al Nassr and Al-Taawoun, securing a 2-1 victory for his team. The winning goal was controversially credited to Ronaldo after a situation in the 50th minute where his teammate Mohamed Simakan appeared to score but the ball was touched by Ronaldo before crossing the goal line. Simakan was visibly upset and frustrated, reacting strongly to what he perceived as Ronaldo taking credit for the goal. The incident occurred after Al Nassr had fallen behind early in the game but managed to equalize through Samu Costa before Ronaldo's decisive goal.
