Cristiano Ronaldo took his international goal tally to 140 in 222 appearances with two as Portugal opened their World Cup qualifying campaign with a 5-0 hammering of Armenia in Group F.
The 40-year-old, taking part in his sixth qualifying campaign, has now scored in each of the 23 seasons he has played for the national side.
His first was a close-range tap-in from Pedro Neto’s cross but his second was a vicious shot from 25 yards, his 10th goal in his last 10 competitive outings for Portugal.
