Cristiano Ronaldo created a new FIFA World Cup record after scoring for Portugal against Uzbekistan on Tuesday. The goal made him the first player in football history to score in six different World Cup editions. Ronaldo opened the scoring early in the Group K match and helped Portugal take control of the game. Nuno Mendes later doubled Portugal's lead with a well-worked team move. Uzbekistan thought they had pulled a goal back with a stunning long-range strike, but the effort was ruled out after a foul in the build-up. Portugal continued to dominate as they pushed for an important World Cup victory.
