Ronaldo's diving fourth-minute header at Luzhniki Stadium was his 85th goal for his country, breaking the record held by Hungary great Ferenc Puskas.

The 33-year-old Real Madrid star equalled the record with a hat-trick against Spain last Friday.

Puskas scored 84 international goals for Hungary between 1945 and 1956.
