The Real Madrid forward has moved to nine goals after giving Portugal the lead against Wales in Wednesday’s semi-final
Cristiano Ronaldo is one goal away from
becoming the all-time top scorer in the
European Championship.

The Real Madrid forward scored the opener in Portugal’s semi-final against Wales which moves him on nine goals overall since making his tournament debut at Euro 2004.

And he’s now level with France’s Michel
Platini, who scored all nine of his goals at
Euro 1984.



Ronaldo is also the first player to find the
net in four different European Championships and has played 20 games at the tournament – the most of any player in history.

The 31-year-old is also the first player to
appear in three European Championship semi-finals.
