The UEFA Euro will forever be remembered by football fans all over the world, as it became the tournament where Cristiano Ronaldo matched the all-time record for most goals scored by a member of a national team.
The Portuguese footballer matched Ali Daei as the top scorer in the men's category with a couple of penalties against France, which also proved to be crucial for A Selecao's hopes to progress in the tournament.
If that was not enough reason for CR7 to brag about, he also became the player with the most goals scored in FIFA World Cup and UEFA Euro games, surpassing the tally reached by Miroslav Klose.

CR7 reached the milestone after 177 games with A Selecao, but if that is not impressive enough for you, his recent numbers hint that he will do everything but slow down with the national team.
