Cristiano Ronaldo became the first European to reach 100 international goals with the first of his two goals in their UEFA Nations League game in Sweden.
The Portugal forward had overtaken Ferenc Puskás's European record of 84 during the 2018 FIFA World Cup, and the 35-year-old achieved his century with a free-kick against the Swedes in Solna on September 8, 2020.
Iran's Ali Daei (109) is the only man in world football to have outscored him. Several women have amassed 100 international goals, with Christine Sinclair’s 186 for Canada the world record. The European best of 128 is held by Germany’s Birgit Prinz.
