Ronaldo made his senior debut for Portugal as a second-half substitute in a friendly international against Kazakhstan in Chaves on 20 August 2003. His bow for the full national side came just a fortnight after playing another friendly, which would become an important marker in Ronaldo’s fledgling career. A mesmerising display of wing wizardry for S...
Ronaldo’s competitive debut came at the 2004 European Championship, staged in Portugal. The then 18-year-old gave away a penalty five minutes after coming on as a second-half substitute against Greece as the hosts fell to a shock 2-1 defeat in the tournament opener, although it was Ronaldo who scored the late consolation goal, rising well to head i...
With Luís Figo initially retiring during the qualifying campaign for World Cup 2006, Ronaldo took the mantle as the team’s most important player. He struck seven goals as Portugal strolled through qualification, the standout performance being a brace in the 7-1 demolition of Russia in Lisbon at the same Alvalade stadium where he had shone for Sport...
At 22 years of age Ronaldo was made captain of his country and ahead of Euro 2008 his shirt number was changed from No17 to No7. The iconic image of Ronaldo wearing the number seven shirt and the captain’s armband was born. Ronaldo again enjoyed a strong qualifying campaign, netting eight goals and the tournament started well for the Seleção, with ...
The premature end of Portugal’s participation at Euro 2008 also signalled the end of the Scolari era as national team coach. The Brazilian returned to club football, taking over at Chelsea, and he was replaced by Carlos Queiroz. The appointment of the new Selecionadorwas initially met with enthusiasm in Portugal, in particular in relation to his po...
Paulo Bento had been a former teammate of Ronaldo’s at Sporting and the two of them immediately hit it off. “Paulo Bento the coach is exactly the same as Paulo Bento the player,” said Ronaldo. Tactically, the major change was making sure Ronaldo always had a strike partner instead of playing as a lone man up front, despite Portugal’s lack of high-q...
Ronaldo’s ability to carry Portugal was never as evident as during the World Cup 2014 qualifying campaign and tournament. With no Figo, no Rui Costa, and no Deco, the national team was unhealthily reliant on its captain. Paulo Bento’s stubborn selection policy meant a midfield of Miguel Veloso, João Moutinho and Raúl Meireles started every match, r...
Paulo Bento was considered lucky by many to survive such a poor showing at World Cup 2014, and a shock 1-0 defeat at home to Albania in the first qualifying match for Euro 2016 was the last straw. The FPF sacked Bento and brought in veteran coach Fernando Santos, an appointment that was greeted in lukewarm fashion by the press and public alike. San...
Portugal’s long wait for silverware was finally over. Copious and joyous celebrations in the football-crazed country extended throughout the summer and into the autumn, and perhaps took their toll as World Cup qualifying began, with the newly crowned champions of Europe brought back down to earth with a bump in a 2-0 defeat in Switzerland. Truth be...
Between the World Cup and the start of qualification for Euro 2020, UEFA introduced a new tournament. The Nations League had initially been greeted with scepticism by fans and the media but the exciting group stages – which Ronaldo sat out of – went some way to changing perceptions as meaningful encounters rather than friendly games led to some ent...

Ronaldo got a brace against the Republic of Ireland and now counts 111 goals in 180 caps for Portugal. That means the five-time Ballon d'Or winner now has two more goals than Daei.
