JAKARTA - Cristiano Ronaldo made an important contribution behind the Portugal national team's victory over Ghana in their first match at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

The Portugal national team won 3-2 over Ghana in a match that took place at Stadium 974, Thursday 24 November local time or Friday 25 November morning WIB. Ronaldo scored one goal.

The former Manchester United player broke into Ghana's goal with a white spot. The goal not only helped A Selecao to get three points, but also recorded Ronaldo's name in the World Cup history book.

He became the first player to score in five different editions of the World Cup. Previously, Ronaldo scored goals in the 2006 World Cup, 2010, 2014, and 2018.

"It was a beautiful moment, my fifth World Cup, and we have started with a good foothold," Ronaldo said as reported by Antara via AFP, Friday, November 25.

"It was a very important win, we knew the first game was very important, but the world record was also something that made me very proud," he continued.

The 37-year-old surpassed Lionel Messi, Miroslav Klose, Pele and Uwe Seeler's record for scoring in four different World Cup editions.

Only Lionel Messi has the opportunity to match Ronaldo's achievements, but it is relatively small. Because Messi will be 39 years old if Argentina is included in the next edition of the World Cup, namely 2026.
