The Portuguese came into the starting line-up against Liechtenstein
Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo took part in the 2024 UEFA European Championship qualifying match against Liechtenstein and came out on top in terms of games played at national team level. The 38-year-old striker has played 197 matches for the national team.
The Al Nasr forward has overtaken Bader Al Mutwa of Kuwait. It's worth noting that the International Federation of Football History and Statistics (IFFHS) considers Malaysian Son Chin Ann (219 games) to be the owner of the achievement. He played 24 games, but they are not officially counted.
In the game against Liechtenstein, Ronaldo scored. Cristiano converted a penalty in the 51st minute.
Twelve minutes later, the striker scored a second time.
This was the 119th and 120th goals for the Portuguese national team, which is also an updated world record.
Apart from Ronaldo, only former Iranian national footballer Ali Daei has scored more than 100 goals for the national team - 109.
