🚨 World Cup qualifiers: legendary record for CR7 🔥, Haaland on fire 💥 | OneFootball

A completely crazy evening!

This Tuesday night saw the last matches of the international break for the European zone. Portugal, who traveled to Hungary as part of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, could once again count on an indestructible Cristiano Ronaldo.

Initially trailing 1-0, the Seleçao responded with a goal from Bernardo Silva before CR7 found the net himself. This goal allowed him to equal a legendary record, as he is now the joint top scorer in the history of World Cup qualifiers with 39 goals, tied with Carlos Ruiz.

Despite Hungary’s equalizer in the 84th minute, Portugal managed to react once again and snatch victory thanks to a goal from Joao Cancelo in the 86th minute.

For their part, England made life easy against Serbia with a 5-0 victory. Harry Kane (33rd), Noni Madueke (36th), Ezri Konsa (53rd), Marc Guéhi (75th), and Marcus Rashford (90th) scored the goals for the Three Lions.

But the real fireworks took place in Norway, where Martin Odegaard’s teammates inflicted an 11-1 defeat on Moldova. Erling Haaland notably scored five goals and improved his incredible ratio, while his teammate Thelo Aasgaard netted four goals... after coming on in the 63rd minute.

England (Group K) and Norway (Group I) are leading their groups with 15 points, while Portugal is also at the top of Group F with six points.
