Cristiano Ronaldo is the all-time leading goalscorer in men’s international football. Last year, the Manchester United star moved clear of previous record holder Ali Daei and now boasts a stunning number sheet of 117 strikes in 189 caps for Portugal.
However, the frustrating thing is that Ronaldo probably thinks he should actually be on 118 international goals because of an infamous moment against Spain back in 2010.
Shortly after Las Rojas had won the World Cup for the very first time, defeating Portugal along the way in the round of 16, the two Iberian nations were reunited for an international friendly.
And boy did the Selecao exact their revenge in a big way as they secured a stunning 4-0 victory at the Estádio da Luz courtesy of strikes from Carlos Martins and Hugo Almeida as well as a Helder Postiga brace.
