Cristiano Ronaldo insists he is focused on being the perfect team member at Saudi side Al Nassr rather than collecting more individual accolades in the twilight of his career.
The 39-year-old, who has won the Ballon d'Or award five times, scored in Al Nassr's 2-1 win over Al Rayyan of Qatar in their AFC Champions League Group B match on Monday.
One of the youngsters with the most hype in the world is 14-year-old American Cavan Sullivan. The teenage attacking midfielder is the youngest MLS player in history, has already signed with Manchester City and scored a worldie on Monday.
During an MLS Next Pro game against Columbus Crew 2, Sullivan opened the scoring in the 29th minute with a fantastic finish.
The phenom received the ball from outside the box following a cleared corner kick and lasered a shot to the far post. What a strike.
