Ronaldo's World Cup Legacy: 27 Caps, 11 Goals

Cristiano Ronaldo's World Cup career concluded with Portugal's 1-0 loss to Spain in the Round of 16. Over six tournaments from 2006 to 2022, he made 27 appearances, the second-highest in World Cup history, behind Argentina's Lionel Messi, who has 30.

Ronaldo scored 11 goals, ranking ninth on the all-time World Cup scoring list. His goals include two against Uzbekistan in the group stage, a penalty against Croatia in the Round of 32, and a hat trick against Spain in a 3-3 group stage draw in 2018.

Throughout his World Cup journey, Ronaldo helped Portugal reach the semi-finals in 2006, where they lost to France, and faced elimination in the Round of 16 in 2010 against Spain, and in 2014 did not advance past the group stage. In 2022, Portugal reached the quarter-finals but lost to Morocco.

Ronaldo's international trophy tally includes three titles, notably the 2016 European Championship, but he has not won a World Cup.
