Starting against Scotland this Tuesday, Cristiano Ronaldo entered the history of world football a little further.

Cristiano Ronaldo never stops signing impressive brands. This Tuesday, he got another one. During the match between his Portuguese team and Scotland, he honored his 200e tenure on the international scene.

So it was the 200e time when CR7 played from the start with the Seleçao. The first was twenty years ago. The first dates back to June 20, 2004 against Spain at the Euro of the same year.

Cristiano Ronaldo doesn’t plan to stop there

Cristiano Ronaldo has a total of 215 matches with his country. And he also has 133 goals, which is a world record. In Glasgow, however, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner remained silent. But he was not far from doing so in the 48th minute of play with a header that went slightly above the opponent’s frame. In the 82nd minute, he also fired a shot from the right, although it was off target.

Despite his advanced age, the Al Nassr striker does not yet intend to hang up his boots. He clearly intends to play the 2026 World Cup in North America.
