Cristiano Ronaldo breaks Guinness World Records



Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo has broken Guinness World Records as the first men's player to win 200 international caps.

The 38-year-old achieved this in their Euro 2024 qualifiers against Iceland. He was given the certificate by Guinness World Records before kick-off to mark this latest landmark.

The Al-Nassr's player broke Kuwait forward Bader Al-Mutawa's 196-cap record in March.

The former Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus and Sporting Lisbon player scored from Goncalo Inacio's header from close range.

The goal was initially ruled out for an Inacio offside but was awarded by the video assistant referee.

That was Ronaldo's 123rd international goal, extending his world record.
