Cristiano Ronaldo has once again etched his name in the history books, this time by becoming the all-time leading goalscorer in FIFA World Cup Qualifiers. During Portugal’s recent clash against Hungary, the legendary forward netted his 41st goal in this prestigious competition, surpassing the previous record held by Carlos Ruiz of Guatemala. This remarkable achievement adds another significant milestone to Ronaldo’s already unparalleled career. Despite the team’s eventual draw against Hungary, Ronaldo’s individual brilliance shone through. His initial goal equalized the score in the first half, marking the 947th goal of his professional career. He then put Portugal ahead just before halftime, further solidifying his dominance in World Cup qualifying matches. This latest record-breaking performance underscores Ronaldo’s enduring impact on the sport, even at this advanced stage of his career. He now stands ahead of other footballing giants like Lionel Messi and Ali Daei in this specific scoring category.
