The 36-year-old has now scored 111 international goals, the most by any player in history after breaking Iran's Ali Daei's long-standing record since 2006.

However, Ronaldo has insisted that he is not resting on his oars after the achievement and said that he would continue to raise the bar.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner will not be available for Portugal's World Cup qualifier against Azerbaijan next after getting booked for over-celebrating by taking off his shirt.

The 36-year-old will now have to wait to score more goals for the Selecao in the next round of international matches slated for October.

“From all the records that I have broken during my career – and fortunately there have been a few – this one is very special for me and it’s certainly on the shelf of the achievements that make me truly proud.
"I’m not closing the count just yet."
