Cristiano Ronaldo equals Michel Platini's European Championship record

Cristiano Ronaldo will have the chance to become the all-time top scorer in European Championship history when his Portugal team take on either Germany or France in the final of Euro 2016 next week.

Ronaldo scored the opener as Portugal recorded a 2-0 win over Wales in the semi-finals on Wednesday night, before Nani netted shortly after to send Fernando Santos's side into the final of the competition.

Ronaldo's effort was his ninth goal in the finals of a European Championship, which has moved him level with France's Michel Platini, who scored all nine of his goals at Euro 1984.

The 31-year-old Real Madrid forward has also become the first player to find the back of the net in four different European Championships, having made his debut at Euro 2004.
