00:06The 39-year-old forward was in the starting XI for his side's Group F opener against
00:11Czech Republic and Germany on Tuesday.
00:14Ronaldo's international team-mate Pepe also started, meaning at the age of 41 and 113
00:19days he becomes the oldest player in Euros history.
00:23Ronaldo had already scored the most European Championship goals, 14, and made the most
00:28appearances, 25, before the 2024 tournament.
00:32He has now become the first player to feature at six separate Euros – a run that stretches
00:36back to 2004.
00:39Prior to the game at Leipzig's Red Bull Arena, Ronaldo's international team-mate
00:42Ruben Dias praised his ongoing contribution to the team.
00:46''Cristiano represents the idea that it's possible to dream and achieve great things,''
00:51said the Manchester City defender.
00:53''It's a pleasure to have him with us.
00:56Beyond all those little big things I've mentioned, it's important that he's here
00:59with us at this stage of his career.''
