Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo hit a major benchmark when he scored in the 52nd minute against Arsenal.
The five-time Ballon d'Or winner now has 800 goals for club and country.

The forward notched his 801st goal from the penalty spot in the 70th minute. Nobody else has scored more times in officially recorded fixtures, although the Czech FA claims that Josef Bican scored 821 times (there is no official record-keeper in soccer).
This hasn't been a great year for Ronaldo in terms of team success.
