Ronaldo Sets Record as Portugal Reaches Nations League Final

Cristiano Ronaldo led Portugal to a dramatic 2-1 comeback victory over Germany in the UEFA Nations League semifinal, scoring his 137th international goal and breaking the record for most goals in a single Nations League A campaign. Germany took the lead early in the second half through Florian Wirtz, but Portugal equalized quickly via Francisco Conceicao before Ronaldo's decisive tap-in after a run by Nuno Mendes. The win ended a 25-year winless streak for Portugal against Germany and secured a place in the final against either Spain or France. Ronaldo extended his all-time international goalscoring record, further cementing his legacy. Despite Germany's strong first half and improvements under coach Julian Nagelsmann, Portugal's second-half resurgence proved decisive. Portugal, coached by Roberto Martinez, now aim for their first major trophy since winning the inaugural Nations League in 2019.
