Cristiano Ronaldo Reaches Euros Landmark In Win Over Hungary

Cristiano Ronaldo has become Euros top scorer by recording his 11th goal.

Gatekeepers News reports that Cristiano Ronaldo has made history at Euro 2020 by scoring his 11th goal in the men’s European Championship as Portugal thrashed Hungary 3-0 on Tuesday.

Ronaldo in front of more than 60,000 fans in Budapest, overtook France’s Michel Platini nine goals by converting an 87th-minute penalty for his 10th goal in the competition.

The Juventus forward netted his 11th a few minutes later to secure Portugal’s third.

Hungary who looked quite competitive at the beginning of the game, lost it when Raphael Guerreiro’s shot launched the opener for the defending champions before Ronaldo sealed it with two goals afterward.

Meanwhile, World champions France have started their Euro 2020 campaign with a 1-0 win over Germany, courtesy of Mats Hummels’ own goal in the other Group F match on Tuesday.
