Cristiano Ronaldo arrived in Qatar 2022 surrounded by controversy over an explosive interview with Piers Morgan, which ultimately led to his departure from Manchester United. However, he left all of that aside to make FIFA World Cup history with Portugal.

The 37-year-old superstar got on the scoresheet in his team’s first game in Qatar against Ghana on Matchday 1 of Group H. Fernando Santos’ men were awarded a penalty in the second half, and the expert didn’t fail.

Not only Ronaldo added to his personal count at the international level, but he also set an amazing feat that not even the likes of Pele, Diego Maradona or Lionel Messi were able to do in a World Cup.
