Ronaldo has scored four goals in three games since new coach Roberto Martinez took over, which shows that he has been in excellent form recently.

During a news conference in Reykjavik, he voiced his feelings by saying, “I will never give up getting here (to the Portugal team) since it’s always a dream. Reaching 200 matches for my country on the international stage is not for anyone else; rather, it demonstrates the affection I have for our team.
The Portugal national football team has already been dominant in their qualification campaign for the Euro 2024 tournament. They have won three matches in a row, amassing an astounding goal tally of 13, and have not allowed any goals to be scored against them. The presence of Ronaldo as well as his contributions have been extremely important to their achievement.
Coach Roberto Martinez appreciated the significance of Ronaldo’s accomplishment and emphasized that a player achieving 200 international games is a special and proud occasion for Portuguese football. Ronaldo is the first player in Portuguese football history to play in 200 international games. Ronaldo and the rest of the team will be in a festive mood when they take on Iceland in their next match.
