Cristiano Ronaldo on top: Top international scorer

Cristiano Ronaldo has further strengthened his position as Europe's all-time leading international marksman; he now has ten more goals than second-placed Ferenc Puskás following his strike against Luxembourg in UEFA EURO 2020 qualifying in October.

Axar.az reports citing Uefa.com that Ronaldo first moved above Puskás by scoring the opener in Portugal's 2018 FIFA World Cup game against Morocco. He added another three goals to his tally in the UEFA Nations League semi-final against Switzerland. The 34-year-old subsequently struck once in qualifying against Serbia before registering four more against Lithuania, both in September, before finding the net against Luxembourg in Lisbon.

Iran's Ali Daei (109) is the only player in world football to have outscored him.
