Aging like a fine wine in all senses. Cristiano Ronaldo was not necessarily in the headlines for Portugal after their cruising win, but the legendary Portuguese did equal yet another record last night in his side’s 3-0 win against Turkey on Saturday.

The Al-Nassr forward was on sight of an easy goal in the second half, but opted to pass it down to teammate Bruno Fernandes, as Ronaldo notched up an assist, as Portugal reigned supreme over the Turks.

With his assist, Ronaldo equalled the record for the most assists made in EURO tournament history, with 8 assists, tying for the first spot with Czechia’s Karel Poborsky.

Ronaldo is definitely not new to setting and breaking records, especially in the international stage.

The former Manchester United and Real Madrid man has already etched his name as the all-time international record goal-scorer, having surpassed 130 goals.
