BREAKING NEWS: Ronaldo makes history by scoring at four different Euros

Cristiano Ronaldo has made history by becoming the first player to score in four separate European Championships after netting in Portugal's Euro 2016 contest against Hungary on Wednesday.

The prolific Real Madrid forward etched his name into the record books with a cheeky flick with his back to goal to level the match at 2-2. 

Portugal's record scorer started his love affair with the Euros in 2004 on home soil, although it was not a particularly memorable result as they were beaten 2-1 by Greece - the same opponents who defeated them in the final.

Four years ago, Portugal made it to the last four with Ronaldo helping himself to a brace against Netherlands in the group stages and bagging the winner versus Czech Republic in the last eight.

However, Ibrahimovic can emulate Ronaldo's exploits and match the milestone when his country take on Belgium in Nice later on Wednesday.
