The Portuguese talisman has scored just 12 per cent of his international goals from penalties...
Cristiano Ronaldo became the highest goal scorer of all-time in international football with his two goals against Republic of Ireland in a 2022 World Cup qualifying game on Wednesday. His goals helped his team snatch an incredible victory from the jaws of defeat at the Algrave Stadium in Portugal.
The visitors took the lead in the 45th minute of the match after Ronaldo had missed a penalty in the 15th minute. But the Portuguese superstar made amends in the second half by scoring twice in the 89th minute and 90+6 minutes to guide his team to a memorable win.
