Cristiano Ronaldo Scores Superb Overhead Kick Against Poland<\/h2>\n

The footballing icon made it 910 career goals in Portugal’s 5-1 win over Poland, as the former Manchester United<\/a> star scored twice, including an overhead kick, in his hunt for 1000 goals.<\/p>\n

Portugal needed a point to seal their place in the UEFA Nations League quarter finals and Roberto Martinez’s side began the match superbly.<\/p>\n

The hosts came close in the opening stages as Pedro Neto’s cross was inches away from being converted by Bruno Fernandes.<\/p>\n

However, Poland also had their moments and Nicola Zalewski almost put the visitors ahead with a monstrous long-range effort that was brilliantly saved by Diogo Costa.<\/p>\n

The best chance of the half fell to Bartosz Bereszynski, as the Polish player was denied by a last-ditch tackle from PSG defender – Nuno Mendes.<\/p>\n

Portugal looked like they were going to take the lead straight after the restart, but Ronaldo fluffed his lines from close range after some great work from Rafael Leao.<\/p>\n

But, it would be Leao that gave Portugal their deserved lead, as the AC Milan star finished off a swift counter attack with a well-placed header.<\/p>\n

The Euro 2016 champions would double their lead from the penalty spot, as Ronaldo scored his first after Diogo Dalot’s strike hit the arm of Jakub Kiwior.<\/p>\n

Things went from bad to worse for Poland, as Bruno Fernandes unleashed a cannon from outside the box that crashed off the crossbar into the back of the net.<\/p>\n

Pedro Neto then added a fourth with a sublime near-post finish and Ronaldo added a fifth with a superb overhead kick into the far corner.<\/p>\n

Poland managed to find a consolation through Dominik Marczuk, who came on as a substitute, but Portugal went on to seal their place in the UNL quarter-finals.<\/p>\n
