Ronaldo Equals Puskás's International Record by JayKayMaybachz(op): 7:32am On Jun 16, 2018
Cristiano Ronaldo has now hit 84 international goals, taking him level with Europe's all-time top scorer Ferenc Puskás.

After scoring a hat-trick in Portugal's 3-3 draw against Spain at the FIFA World Cup, Cristiano Ronaldo has matched Ferenc Puskás's record as Europe's all-time leading international marksman.

The Real Madrid forward moved above Japan's Kunishige Kamamoto (80) in the global rankings in March and is now tied for second with Puskás (84). Iran's Ali Daei (109) is the only player to have outscored him. The 33-year-old will overhaul Puskás as Europe's most prolific international forward if he scores again at the World Cup in Russia.

All C. Ronaldo can do is run, control and shoot, he has no skills, deceiving children born in 2000s because they never saw the real Ronaldo. If I enter that pitch, this is what I'll do to him...I'll chase him and flog his long ostrich neck.
