But fans took to Twitter to make fun of Pele for updating his tally and not respecting Ronaldo's unbelievable feat.

One Twitter fan said

"If Ronaldo and [Lionel] Messi also count all their club friendlies goals, youth goals, FIFA and PES Goals [sic], I'm sure they'll be having somewhere close to 2000 already."

Another added:

"Pele is a Joker [sic] man, he was great footballer, but the way he's acted since retiring is of astounding arrogance."

And a third said:

"Just can't concede he lost that record."

A fourth added:

"This is getting petty now. He'll randomly score a goal in his backyard and start adding to his tally now."
