Cristiano Ronaldo became the first European player to reach 100 international goals after scoring twice in Portugal's 2-0 win over 10-man Sweden.
Veteran Sweden midfielder Gustav Svensson was sent off just before half-time for collecting a second yellow card, and from the resulting free-kick, Ronaldo fired the ball into the top corner to bring up his landmark century.
After 72 minutes, the Juventus forward - who missed Portugal's Nations League opener against Croatia on Saturday with a toe injury - curled in a second goal from the edge of the penalty area.
The total number of international goals scored by him now is 101 plus his two goals for Portugal against sweden.
