Cristiano Ronaldo has added yet another award to his cabinet as the Portugal star was presented with a Guinness World Record plaque ahead of his nation's crucial Nations League showdown against Denmark at Estadio Jose Alvalade.
The five-time Ballon d'Or winner was officially recognized for achieving the most wins in international football, a milestone he reached in November of last year when Portugal thrashed Poland 5-1. During that match, Ronaldo scored twice, helping him surpass his former Real Madrid teammate Sergio Ramos' previous record with his 132nd international victory.
This latest accolade adds to Ronaldo's impressive collection of Guinness World Records, which includes being recognized for scoring the most goals in international football, becoming the first player to net 100 UEFA Champions League goals, and holding the title of the most-followed male on Instagram.
Unfortunately for the Portuguese captain, the celebration of his newest award wasn't followed by a stellar performance on the pitch. The 40-year-old missed a penalty in the first half of the Nations League quarter-final second leg against Denmark, dampening what should have been a momentous occasion.
Ronaldo is set to return to club action with Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr on April 4, where a high-stakes clash against arch-rivals Al-Hilal awaits. The superstar forward continues to build his legacy as one of football's greatest players, with his international achievements standing as a testament to his longevity and excellence at the highest level of the sport.
