The player of the Portuguese team Cristiano Ronaldo is the first footballer in history to score at least one goal in the final stages of six World Championships. Counting the two goals he has scored in Tuesday's Portugal-Uzbekistan match at the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Mexico and Canada, the Al-Nassr striker has scored at least one goal in every World Cup since 2006, with a total of ten.

In fact, Cristiano Ronaldo (now 41 years old) began his historic record atthe 2006 World Cup, when he scored a goal 20 years ago, in 2010 in South Africa and in 2014 in Brazil, in 2018 he scored four goals in Russia, and in 2022 in Qatar, where he scored one goal in six consecutive World Championships.

It is worth noting that Leo Messi, who has scored the most goals in the World Cup in history, has also played in those six tournaments; but Messi has scored the eighteen goals he has scored so far in five events, since he did not score any in 2010.

Messi himself is also the only footballer who has scored at least one goal in five World Cup games. Few have scored in four events: Klose, Pele, Maradona, Matthaus, Ronaldo, Henry, Wilmots, Cahill and Seeler.
