When Cristiano Ronaldo slammed a spot-kick past Hungarian goalkeeper Péter Gulácsi in the Euro 2020 group stage clash between Portugal and Hungary, the footballing world erupted as a whole. By sending Gulácsi the wrong way, Ronaldo had just surpassed Michael Platini to become the single highest goal-scorer at the tournament, with only Antoine Griezmann now a realistic competitor to Ronaldo at the top. Barring Griezmann, no player at Euro 2020 is even remotely close to toppling Ronaldo at the top.Furthermore, Ronaldo's 10th and 11th goals of the Euros (his first and second at Euro 2020) were his 105th and 106th for Portugal. Only Ali Daei of Iran has scored more goals for his country - 109. He is, thus, on his way to adding another feather to his cap, with the all-time international goal-scoring record within arm's reach at the Euro 2020.Most Goals UEFA EURO : 🆕1⃣1⃣ - Cristiano Ronaldo 🇵🇹 🆕9⃣ - Michel Platini 🇫🇷7⃣ - Alan Shearer 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿6⃣ - Antoine Griezmann 🇫🇷6⃣ - Ruud van Nistelrooy 🇳🇱6⃣ - Patrick Kluivert 🇳🇱6⃣ - Wayne Rooney 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿6⃣ - Thierry Henry 🇫🇷6⃣ - Nuno Gomes 🇵🇹6⃣ - Zlatan Ibrahimović 🇸🇪 pic.twitter.com/VtpzVNnORd— Yanek Stats (@yanekstats) June 16, 2021However, there is a hidden side to Ronaldo's Euro 2020 recordAs many fans were quick to point out, Ronaldo has played a total of 22 games to score his 11 goals, which gives a not-so-fancy goal/game ratio of 0.5. In fact, this year's Euro 2020 is Ronaldo's fifth Euro campaign - a record. He has played more minutes at the event than any other player - 1884 minutes in all.As hard as it may be to believe for some of his fans, Ronaldo ranks 10th on the list of players with the highest number of goals scored per game. The likes of Griezmann, Rooney, Shearer and Henry all outrank him on this star-filled roster.This certainly begs the question: who IS at the pinnacle of this statistical record?Let's take a look at the Top 5 players with the highest goals per game ratio at the UEFA European Championship (Euros) through the years leading upto Euro 2020🇵🇹 Cristiano Ronaldo has now scored 11 GOALS and provided 8 ASSISTS in 22 games at the Euros. #Euro2020 pic.twitter.com/BPsGl3qwOO— The CR7 Timeline.
