Cristiano Ronaldo Closes In On 1,000-Goal Milestone After Scoring Hattrick In Al-Nassr's Victory Cristiano Ronaldo is closing in on a historic 1,000th career goal after scoring a hat-trick in Al Nassr's 5-3 win over Al Kholood, taking his total goal-scoring count to 985. The 41-year-old Portugal star scored all three within 15 second-half minutes, finding the back of the net in the 66th, 72nd and 81st minutes to seal all three points at Alawwal Park on Thursday night, October 19. Ronaldo's treble has taken him to 985 career goals as he aims to achieve 1000 goal milestone. Addressing the target with his former teammate Rio Ferdinand in 2024, Ronaldo said: 'I want to reach 1,000 goals. If I don't have any injuries, this for me is the most important (thing), I want that. 'For me, the best mark that I can have in football is to reach, first, 900 goals. After, my challenge is to be at 1,000 goals.'

IRAN VS ISRAEL: WE ARE ON THE VERGE OF WW3, SAYS PEACE-PRO. (PHOTO).


 Iran versus Israel: We are on the verge of WW3, says PeacePro


...Prepare to defend Africa, it urges AU


A peacebuilding think tank, Foundation for Peace Professionals also known as PeacePro has declared that the world is on the verge of World War III, after Iran drops missiles on Israel in retaliation of the attack on its embassy without adequate response from United Nations Security Council.

PeacePro said that, the escalation of crisis between Iran and Israel is an indication of a wider conflict.

In a statement by the Executive Director, Mr Abdulrazaq Hamzat, PeacePro said that the failure of United Nations to quickly provide adequate intervention is a signal the global body has effectively lost control of the global system and the magnitude of conflict the world will experience in coming months cannot be imagined.

According to Hamzat, nations are no longer united and the voice of the United Nations is lost, an indication that the fibric holding global peace has practically collapsed.

“In absence of United Nations, it is safe to say that another world war is hanging around the corner, except something drastic is done to avert the upcoming tragedy”.

Hamzat therefore urges African nations, through Africa Union (AU) to avoid taking sides with the conflicting nations and keep the continent free from global battles.

“The continent should be prepared to defend itself against any external aggression or forceful coersion into global conflict“
