📈 Ronaldo equals two footballing greats with latest Portugal goal

Cristiano Ronaldo continued to build on his footballing legacy in Portugal’s clash with Poland.

Roberto Martínez’s Seleçao are underway in their UEFA Nations League A Group 1 clash against the hosts at Stadion Narodowy with a 2-0 lead at half-time, due in part to their talismanic figure.

Already up by a goal thanks to Manchester City’s Bernardo Silva, Ronaldo doubled the advantage eleven minutes later.

The Al-Nassr frontman tapped home a close-range rebound after Rafael Leão’s rocket was turned away by Bologna’s Łukasz Skorupski.

Not only has the 39-year-old now hit 33 goals for club and country this calendar year, Ronaldo’s total of 906 goals is equal to that of Diego Maradona and Zlatan Ibrahimović combined.

Aging like a fine wine.
