Big Kudos to Cristiano Ronaldo as he makes the biggest history ever
Cristiano Ronaldo became the first male player to score at five World Cups with a goal for Portugal against Ghana on Thursday, November 24, 2022.
Playing his first match following his exit from Manchester United, all eyes were on him as he started Portugal’s quest for World Cup glory.

His first chance came in the 9th minute, but Ghana goalkeeper Lawrence Ati-Zigi was quick off his line to deny Ronaldo, diving at the Portuguese captain’s feet to smother the ball.
Three minutes later Ronaldo was given yet another opportunity to score when a cross from the left of the box found him unmarked as he rose above everyone else.
But he missed the regulation header, sending the ball wide of the post. Ronaldo did finally find the net in the 31st minute again, but the goal was disallowed as he was penalised for a foul on the Ghanian defender.

But Ronaldo finally had his moment in the 61st minute after he went down in the box after a challenge from Ghana’s Salisu.
Although it looked like the slightest of touches, the referee was quick to point to the spot. A resolute Ronaldo converted the spot-kick through sheer power as he blasted the ball past a diving Lawrence Ati-Zigi.
He has now scored in every World Cup since his first in 2006, when he converted a penalty against Iran in the group stage.
