Cristiano Ronaldo became the top scorer in European Championship history as Portugal beat Hungary 3-0 in their first UEFA Euro 2020 match.

Ronaldo converted an 87th-minute penalty for his 10th goal in the competition, overtaking France's Michel Platini on nine goals.

His 11th came only a few minutes later.

Raphaël Guerreiro had scored Portugal first goal.

A goal by Hungary’s Szabolcs Schon was denied in the 80th minute as it was ruled to be off-side.

Meanwhile, 2016 runners up France takes on Germany at 7am today.
