Cristiano Ronaldo made a historic milestone at the 2026 World Cup after leading the Portugal national team to a win over Uzbekistan last night.
Following Portugal's 5-0 victory over Uzbekistan in the 2026 World Cup Group K matchday 2,
Ronaldo delivered an outstanding performance, scoring two goals and becoming the first player to score in six consecutive World Cups: 2006, 2010, 2014, 2018, 2022, and 2026. This brought his total World Cup finals goals to 10.
Additionally, at 41 years and 139 days old, Ronaldo became the second oldest player to score in a World Cup, behind only Cameroonian legend Roger Milla, who scored at 42 years and 39 days during the 1994 World Cup.
