Cristiano Ronaldo has promised there is even more to come from him after he established himself as international football's record goalscorer. In the process, he eclipsed the 109 goals scored by Iran's Ali Daei, with whom he had been level before kick-off at the Estadio Algarve. 'First of all, because every time I represent my country is a special moment, for knowing that I'm defending Portugal and showing to the world what Portuguese people are made of. Let's keep meeting inside the pitch in the years to come. I'm not closing the count just yet...'Ronaldo's late heroics spared Portugal a first home World Cup qualifier defeat since 2008 after Ireland turned in a hugely impressive display in Faro.
