WATCH: Cristiano Ronaldo unselfish pass to Bruno Fernandes creates new milestone

Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal is cruised against Turkey in UEFA Euro 2024. They won 3-0 against Vincenzo Montella's side and secured a hefty lead in the first half after being 2-0 up in the first 45 minutes of the game. The tournament favourites started the game well against the underdogs and they broke the deadlock in the 21st minute of the game. Bernardo Silva meeting with the low-driven cross of Nuno Mendes. 

The second goal was a funny one after a miscommunication between defender Samet Akaydin and goalkeeper Altay Bayındır as the ball went inside the net and Portugal went 2-0 up within the first 30 minutes of the game. The video of the goal went viral on social media. They went into the break with the same lead and in the second half, they kept the momentum in their way.

Ronaldo was through on goal and he was 1v1 with the goalkeeper however he passed the ball to Bruno Fernandes who finished in the empty net and the former became the player with the most assists in the tournament. The 39-year-old footballer who is the all-time leading goal scorer in the tournament etched his name to yet another record in the game.

Ronaldo etch new record

The former Real Madrid forward after the assist on Saturday has eight assists in the competition’s history. CR7 also has 15 goals in the tournament. This is his sixth appearance in the major tournament as he became the first footballer to achieve the milestone and might also be the last as well he will turn 43 by the time the next tournament comes and will not be featuring in the national side given the quality of football played in Europe. 

After two wins in two games, Roberto Martinez's side tops the league table and has almost secured their place in the RO16. They would like to win the tournament for Ronaldo as this might be his best farewell for the highest international goalscorer of all time.
