  The 35-year-old hit the landmark by scoring Juventus' second in a 3-0 win over Dynamo Kyiv on Wednesday night.

  The 35-year-old hit the landmark by scoring Juventus' second in a 3-0 over Dynamo Kyiv in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
  "750 goals, 750 happy moments, 750 smiles in the faces of our supporters," Ronaldo said on Instagram after the match.
  "Thank you to all the players and coaches that helped me reach this amazing number, thank you to all my loyal opponents that made me work harder and harder everyday.
  "But above all, thanks to my wonderful family, always present in my best and worst moments."
  Ronaldo's strike was his 75th for Juventus since leaving Real Madrid in 2018, where he scored 450 times in only 438 games.
  He scored five times for Sporting Lisbon as a teenager before hitting 118 for Manchester United between 2003 and 2009. Ronaldo is also his country's all-time leading scorer, having struck 102 times in 170 matches.
  Only three players in the history of soccer have now scored more than the Juventus forward – Brazil duo Pele (757) and Romario (772), and Czech-Austrian legend Josef Bican (805+).
  "Next stop: 800 goals! Let's go!" Ronaldo added.
