With 41 goals in the World Cup preliminaries, Ronaldo ranks first in history! Portugal suffered a 91-minute draw and missed its 4th consecutive victory

In the early morning of October 15, the 2026 US-Canada-Mexico World Cup European Qualifiers continued. In one of the focus matches in Group F, Portugal faced Hungary at home. Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice in this campaign, Szoboszlai made a pass and shot and scored an absolute tie in the 91st minute. The two sides shook hands and settled for a 2-2 draw. Portugal missed the World Cup preliminaries with 4 consecutive victories, delaying its advancement to the World Cup.

Portugal has won the first 3 games and ranks first, while Hungary has 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss, ranking second with 4 points. If they can defeat their opponents at home, Portugal will basically lock in qualification for the World Cup. If Hungary wants to maintain the hope of direct promotion, it must try its best to score 3 points in the away game.

In this game, Portugal continued to send Cristiano Ronaldo as the single arrow, B seat, B fee, Neto, Vitinha and Neves in the midfield, and Dias and Mendes led the defense. For Hungary, Szoboszlai, Korczyk, Orban and Roland Saloy took the field.

In the 5th minute, Mendes made a direct pass from the left. B Fei cut in and hit the ball across the field. Ronaldo shot directly from outside the penalty area without adjusting, and the upper edge of the crossbar was slightly higher.

In the 8th minute, Soboszlai also responded with a high-quality long shot, and Diogo Costa flew to save the ball. In the ensuing corner kick attack, Szoboszlai made a pass, and the landing point was just right. Otilo Szaloi nodded and scored. Hungary turned away and took the lead, 1-0!

In the 21st minute, Portugal equalized the score:

Vitinha made a direct pass from the front of the penalty area, Semedo turned and passed, and Ronaldo rushed to the goal to grab the spot and hit the goal, 1-1!

In the 40th minute, Mendes passed a corner kick. Ronaldo jumped high and headed towards the goal, but failed to hit the goal.

In stoppage time, Mendes made a 45° cross from the left. Cristiano Ronaldo once again showed his keen sense of touch in front of the goal. He hit the volley and scored twice. Portugal went ahead, 2-1!

This is Ronaldo’s 41st World Cup qualifying goal in his career, surpassing Carlos Ruiz and ranking first in history alone. In addition, Cristiano Ronaldo's career goals for the national team increased to 143 goals, with a total of 948 goals, both breaking his own records.

In the 54th minute of the rematch, Fee B made a pass from the right side of the penalty area. He hit the goal from a small angle behind the back of the net, but was saved by Toth.

In the 64th minute, Dias hit a high-quality long shot 30 meters away from the goal. The ball went straight to the upper right corner, but was ruthlessly rejected by the post. Immediately afterwards, B Fei took a shot from outside the penalty area and hit the post again.

In the 74th minute, Corquez made a pass from the left. Ottilo Sauloi beat Vega with a header and hit the bottom edge of the crossbar and rebounded. Dias took the lead to clear the ball with a header, and Portugal escaped.

In the 79th minute, Portugal made substitution adjustments. Cristiano Ronaldo checked in early and failed to achieve a hat trick. Gonzalo Ramos came on.

However, in the 91st minute, a dramatic scene occurred on the court: Lukacs made a breakthrough pass from the right, and Szoboszlai followed up with a shovel shot from behind to equalize the score for Hungary, 2-2!

Portugal has missed out on 4 consecutive wins in the World Cup preliminaries. As a result, the difference between the two sides is still 5 points. With two rounds left in the World Cup preliminaries, Portugal has not been able to secure a spot in the World Cup in advance.
