Ronaldo has conquered many impressive records throughout his career.
Last week, star Cristiano Ronaldo was honored by Guinness World Records as the first male player to hit the 200-game mark for the national team. However, this is just one of many records being held by the Portuguese superstar.
Recently, SportBrief has listed 5 remarkable Ronaldo records that, according to this news site, will “never be broken”.
No. 1 striker in Real’s history
Ronaldo only played 9 seasons for Real but managed to pocket 451 goals, the highest in the team’s history. Before that, Ronaldo also became the fastest player to score 150 goals in La Liga. CR7 achievement is achieved after only 140 appearances. In La Liga alone, Ronaldo had 311 goals before leaving the club to switch to Juventus.
Karim Benzema is second after Ronaldo in the list of the highest scorers for Real. However, the French player is still far behind CR7 with 354 goals. Benzema also left the Royal team this summer. Therefore, it is difficult to find a name that can surpass Ronaldo in the above parameters.

Score 10 or more goals in 7 Champions League seasons
The Champions League is a tournament that brings together the best clubs in Europe. Therefore, it is very difficult to score 10 or more goals in this playing field. However, Ronaldo did this 7 times, from the 2011-2012 to 2017-2018 season.
Up to this point, Ronaldo has 140 goals in the Champions League, 11 more than Messi. Currently, the duo are no longer playing for teams in Europe.
Most goals for the national team
Since making his national team debut in 2003, Ronaldo has scored a total of 123 goals in 200 games. Historically, only 3 players have scored over 100 international goals. Ali Daei with 109 goals has long retired. Messi ranked 3rd, owning 103 goals.
Ronaldo has 8 goals in the World Cup and 14 goals in the Euro. At this time, Ronaldo is still persistently wearing the national team shirt. Ronaldo’s upcoming goal is the Euro held next year.

Score 60 or more goals in 4 consecutive calendar years
Ronaldo scored 60, 63, 69, and 61 goals respectively in the years from 2011 to 2014. The streak of over 60 goals only stopped when CR7 pocketed 57 goals in 2015.
Messi even owns a record of 91 goals in a calendar year. However, the Argentine superstar did not hold for 4 consecutive years to score 60 or more goals.
Win every trophy possible with 2 different clubs
Ronaldo is the only player to have won all titles, including the Champions League, Club World Cup, and domestic titles with two different clubs.
The Portuguese superstar won this achievement in the colors of MU and Real. During his time at Juventus, Ronaldo also collected a whole set of domestic titles. However, he could not join his teammates to win the Champions League.
