The 41-year-old netted a brace against Uzbekistan in Houstoun in the second round of group stage fixtures on Tuesday, and in doing so, became the first player in history to score at six different World Cups and also overtook Eusebio to become Portugal’s all-time leading goalscorer at the World Cup with 10 goals.

“We had with us for 98 matches THE FIRST PLAYER EVER TO SCORE AT 6 WORLD CUPS: Cristiano Ronaldo,” read a social media post from the Lega Serie A.
