Before the kick-off against Iceland, Ronaldo received a Guinness World Record plaque to commemorate this achievement.

Prior to Tuesday's game, the football superstar said, "Two hundred games played proves the love I have for my country. For me it is an extremely important milestone. It means a lot. [Two hundred] is a beautiful number that [no men's player] has. I'm very proud because this is something I never thought I could reach. And I'm continuing to set records."

Tuesday's game also marked Ronaldo's 123rd goal for Portugal, extending his record as the all-time leading international goalscorer.
