Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo missed a glorious chance to score a hat-trick against Latvia when his second penalty of the game hit the post and bounced back into play. But the Real Madrid forward compensated the miss with a brilliant volley goal with five minutes to go as Seleccao cruised to a 4-1 win over the underdogs.
Now here's the best part - the 31-year-old star has now scored 38 international goals. No other player currently playing international football has scored more than him.
The volley was a brilliant display of skill, flexibility and precision, something that sparked wild celebrations across the stadium. Without further ado, let the video below tell the rest of the story. Please note that the video is geo-restricted and may not be playable in some countries.
