Hat-trick Record: Cristiano Ronaldo record – Cristiano Ronaldo already the top goal scorer in international football with 112 strikes became the first player to score 10 international hat-tricks after scoring 3 goals versus Luxembourg, breaking Iran’s Ali Daei’s long-standing record – Ronaldo scored two penalties before netting the 3rd, a header from close range in the 87th minute, converting a Ruben Neves cross.
A goal-machine with 794 strikes in 1,008 matches, Ronaldo has been one of the most destructive players. That he has scored over 30 goals every season in the last 10 years is a testament to that fact. Even at the age of 36, he is in the league of his own, dominant, aggressive and a machine. Luxemburg faced the full wrath of Ronaldo as his three strikes helped Portugal cruise to a 5-0 victory over the European minnows.
