Ronaldo is also the only player who has scored 500 goals still playing. If he scores 14 more goals in the coming time, Messi will catch up with this achievement.

If not counting friendly matches, the "king of football" Pele only has 146 more goals than Ronaldo. Meanwhile, another legend of Brazilian football has a record of 688 goals and is considered the number one club scorer in history.
