Cristiano Ronaldo continues to break records while making history

Manos Staramopoulos • 14 de septiembre de 2024

Cristiano Ronaldo reached 901 goals in his career and does not seem willing to stay at that number.

Cristiano Ronaldo top scorer for Portugal and International Football history.

After scoring his 900th goal against Croatia, CR7 also scored his 901st against Scotland. But it is not the only record set in these first two days of the Nations League. The Portuguese ace reached 132 goals with his national team, leaving... tied with Lionel Messi and Iran's Ali Daei on 109. And he continues.


With the goal against Scotland, it became 48 national teams against which Ronaldo managed to score. From Azerbaijan to Ecuador, from Ghana to New Zealand, to Russia and North Korea, CR7 has scored at every latitude. He had already scored a goal against Croatia (it was 6 October 2013) before the one he scored in the Nations League home game. While with Scotland he had never managed to get there before Sunday.


His favorite victim? Luxembourg with 11 goals in 11 matches. Even more incredible goal average with Lithuania: Seven in just three matches. The same goals were scored in Sweden but they were spread over 7 matches.


It's been more than 20 years in the European Championship group stage at home since his first stamp on June 12, 2004 - a 93rd-minute header from Luis Figo's assist - but the end is almost always the same.


Not even the Argentines of the eternal rival Messi, the French and the Germans managed to escape from this unwritten law.


Cristiano Ronaldo, however, has never scored against Italy, who he has met only twice, England and Brazil. But mainly against Turkey, a national team that they faced six times, without ever being able to celebrate against them.


Cape Verde and North Macedonia have also had good... luck over the years. Anyway, Cristiano Ronaldo doesn't seem willing to stop here and is waiting for his next..."victim".
