Thus, in his quest to score for Portugal he has now secured the third place on the list of soccer players fro Europe with the highest number of international goals.
Ronaldo is now just above Germany legend Miroslav Klose, who has 71 goals. As for the players in front of him, there is Sandor Kocsis from Hungary, with 75 goals, and Ferenc Puskas, who represented Hungary and Spain, and has 84 goals. Fans are very much hopeful that Ronaldo will be able to reach the second position during the time span of this year alone. However, there is a doubt whether we will be able to do so with Puskas, and snatch the top position on the list. However, it won’t be an impossible target for him to reach in the coming season!
