Cristiano Ronaldo was never going to break the 100-international-goal barrier with a scruffy tap-in from three yards. If his previous achievements have taught us anything about the Portugal captain, it is that the spectacular is always preferable to the mundane. So it was fitting that he became only the second men's player in history to hit 100 goals for his country with a stunning free kick against Sweden to bring up his century.
And it should surprise nobody that he went on to score a second in the 2-0 Nations League victory to take his Portugal haul to 101 goals.
