Thank you, @Cristiano 🇵🇹❤️   For more than two decades, Cristiano Ronaldo has consistently produced unforgettable moments, broken records and written his name into football history.   He leaves international football as Portugal’s record goalscorer, a European champion, and a 15-time FIFPRO #World11 winner, earning the recognition of his fellow professionals time and time again.   Congratulations, Cristiano, on an extraordinary 23 years with Portugal 👏
