Ronaldo relishes 'beautiful moment' with new World Cup record

Cristiano Ronaldo called it a "beautiful moment" after becoming the first player to score in five men's World Cups as he led Portugal to a 3-2 victory over Ghana on Thursday in Qatar.

"It's a beautiful moment in my fifth World Cup," Ronaldo told reporters. "It's another record too," he said. "That makes me very proud. I am very happy for the team to have put on excellent performance. It was difficult but we deserved to win."

When asked about his

from Manchester United earlier this week, Ronaldo stated that the only thing that mattered was Portugal's victory. "All the rest, it doesn't matter," he added. Portugal coach Fernando Santos praised his 37-year-old skipper for winning a penalty in the second half and converting it alone to against Ghana.
