Rio Ferdinand jokingly called Cristiano Ronaldo a 'b*****d' after his former Manchester United team-mate appeared to aim a jibe at legends such as Pele.
Ronaldo claimed that the fact that there is video footage of his goals makes him stand out from legends who played many years ago.
After scoring a free-kick for Al-Nassr against Al-Feiha, Ronaldo reached 899 career goals.
Ronaldo is now targeting the landmark of 900 goals and is also planning to reach the incredible milestone of 1,000.
Fifa state that Pele scored 1,281 goals, but the Brazil legend featured prominently in exhibition and amateur matches, with his official tally standing at 762.

Ronaldo expressed his desire to reach 1,000 goals and appeared to mock the likes of Pele, Eusebio and Alfredo Di Stefano in doing so.
Speaking on his new YouTube channel, Ronaldo said: 'Soon I will do 900 and, after, I will beat 1,000.
'I want to reach 1,000 goals. If I don't have injuries, this, for me, is the most important. I want that.
'It's the best marker I can have in football. There will be one difference: all of my goals have videos, so I can prove that.'
Ferdinand then burst out laughing as he said: 'You're a b*****d. You're talking about Alfredo Di Stefano, Pele, Eusebio.'
Ferdinand says Ronaldo will have to continue playing until at least 41 to get to 1,000 goals
