JUST four days after setting the World Cup alight with the first hat-trick of the World Cup, it took Cristiano Ronaldo just four minutes to write another page in football history.

His flying header into the roof of the net from Joao Moutinho’s right-wing cross made him the highest-scoring European man in the history of international football, breaking the record of fellow Real Madrid legend Ferenc Puskas. 

Only Iran’s Ali Daei stands ahead of Ronaldo now with 109 international goals, 24 more than the Portuguese captain.
