Portugal skipper Cristiano Ronaldo increased his international goals' tally to 115 with a hat-trick against Luxembourg as his team won 5-0 in a 2022 World Cup qualifying game on Tuesday.
He is the all-time highest international as well as European goalscorer. Earlier, Iran's legendary forward Ali Daei held the record of all-time highest international goalscorer in the world but Ronaldo went past Daei's tally by scoring a brace against Republic of Ireland in the 2022 World Cup qualifying match on September 1, 2021.
Among European goalscorers, Ronaldo is followed by former Real Madrid star Ferenc Puskas who scored 84 goals in 85 international matches. Puskas is closely followed by his compatriot Sandor Kocsis who was his contemporary in the Hungary national team. Kocsis netted 75 goals in 68 matches.
Here, we take a look at the top 10 European goalscorers of all time.
