Sao Paulo goalkeeper Rogerio Ceni, 42, has extended his record as the most goals scored by a shotstopper with his 127th strike on Saturday.

The legendary Brazilian keeper claimed his 127th career strike with his team's opening goal against RB Brasil on Saturday with a free kick, reports Xinhua.

Ceni's 127 strikes is the highest by any goalkeeper in national and international competitions.

Paraguay's Luis Chilavert, who retired in 2004, is the second on the list with 62 goals.

Ceni has scored half of his goals from free kicks and the other half from penalties.
