As football fans celebrate his achievement, his girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez, responded to Ronaldo’s heroics with a heartwarming message, per Essentially Sports.

Rodriguez reacts to Ronaldo's record

The Spanish model, a regular attendee at the Knights of the Najd's home games, posted a clip on her Instagram story after the match.

The video showed Ronaldo standing in the dugout for a post-match interview. As she zooms in on her boyfriend, CR7 smiles and waves at her. Rodriguez added a caption, saying:

“Nuevo récord. Máximo goleador de la historia en la liga Arabe.”
As translated by DeepL, she wrote: “New record. Top scorer in the history of the Arab League.”

Ronaldo wins Saudi Golden Boot

Ronaldo's impressive brace marked this achievement, with a goal just before half-time breaking the deadlock and giving his team a narrow lead, followed by a second goal after the hour mark, bringing his total to 35 goals.

This not only made him the first player to set a new record for most goals in a single Saudi Pro League season but also earned him the league’s Golden Boot.

Ronaldo claimed this title from Al Nassr’s former striker and current Al Ittihad star, Abderrazak Hamdallah, who scored 34 goals in the 2018/19 season.

Georgina wears Ronaldo-inspired dress

Meanwhile, Rodriguez paid homage to Ronaldo by wearing a dress inspired by his favourite number - seven - which he has donned many times.

Sports Brief also reported that the dress worn by the mother of two of Ronaldo's children also had the autograph of the former Juventus star.
