A World Cup is the one thing missing from Cristiano Ronaldo's trophy cabinet.
The 41-year-old Portuguese superstar became the first player to score in six World Cups, going all the way back to his debut appearance in the 2006 tournament. He scored two goals in Portugal's group stage win over Uzbekistan here in 2026 and now has 10 at the FIFA World Cup in his career.
"People talk about age, but age is just a number. What matters is what they do and the example they set in the locker room," Belgium manager Roberto Martinez said of Ronaldo before the team's round of 32 game against Croatia.
Ronaldo scored one goal in each of his first three World Cups (2006, 2010 and 2014) and then broke out with a famous hat trick against Spain in the 2018 tournament. He would score once more in the 2018 group stage and then one in 2022.
Here's a look at all of Cristiano Ronaldo's World Cup goals:
Entering Portugal's round of 32 match, Cristiano Ronaldo has 10 career World Cup goals and is the only man to score in six editions of the tournament.
