Lionel Messi showed his talent again for Inter Miami, getting three assists in the match against the New England Revolution in MLS. This outstanding performance highlighted his importance to the club and his strong presence in the league. His latest achievement raises the question: what are Cristiano Ronaldo’s contributions with Al Nassr?
Messi recently achieved an impressive 100 goal contributions for Inter Miami, consisting of 66 goals and 34 assists since joining the team. He reached this milestone in style, assisting his teammates in what was his last game before heading off to join Argentina for upcoming friendlies before the World Cup.
This season, the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner has already exceeded 40 goal contributions in MLS, proving he can still perform at a high level. His first two assists of the night helped him reach this total, reinforcing his impact as one of the key players in North America.
With two regular-season games left, the World Cup champion has 24 goals and 17 assists, showing he remains a key player even at 38 years old. Messi’s strong performance keeps him in the running for both the league’s Golden Boot and MVP awards for a second consecutive season.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s goal contributions at Al Nassr
Cristiano Ronaldo’s contributions with Al Nassr have also been impressive. The Portuguese forward has surpassed 100 combined goals and assists since joining the Saudi club, highlighting his consistent performance and finishing skills.
Currently, Ronaldo has a total of 124 goal contributions for Al Nassr — 104 goals and 20 assists — in just 117 matches. This shows his efficiency and ongoing importance as a key player in the team’s attack.
This achievement is significant because Ronaldo is now the first player to score 100 or more goals for four different clubs in soccer history. At 40 years old, he continues to demonstrate longevity, with Al Nassr benefiting from his experience and commitment to success.
Messi’s goal: Carlos Vela’s record
The next milestone for Messi is Carlos Vela’s single-season record of 49 goal contributions, set in 2019 with Los Angeles FC. At his current pace, Messi could match or even exceed this record before the end of the regular season, especially if Inter Miami continues their push for the postseason.
