Love him or hate him, Ronaldo's retirement from Portugal marks the end of era. For over two decades, inspiring millions, he carried the expectations of a nation and broke records. Now the famous No. CR7 has decided step down paving way for the youngsters leaving his fans wondering whether Portugal can ever replace his influence(others says he is the real G.O.A.T).

At 41, Ronaldo leaves as the all time leader in the men's international football with 234 appearances and 146 goals for Portugal. During his career, he helped Portugal win Euro 2016 and UEFA Nations league twice. Although he never won the FIFA world cup.

The Portugal legend may have said goodbye to Portugal, but his quest for 1,000 career goals continues with his current club Al Nasr. The question now is not whether he is a football legend, but whether he can reach a number no player has ever achieved before.
