Euro 2020: Ronaldo's Brace, Mats Hummels Own Goal, Sums Up Group F Match Day 1 By Omolagba Oluwayemi Cristiano Ronaldo netted a double to become the European Championship's all-time leading scorer as Portugal struck three times late on to beat a stubborn Hungary 3-0 in their Euro 2020 opener at a packed Puskas Arena on Tuesday, BSNSports.com.ng reports. The holders, who appear to have a much stronger squad than when they won their first major title five years ago, laboured for long periods in Budapest. But Raphael Guerreiro made the vital breakthrough in the 84th minute and Ronaldo slammed in a penalty shortly afterwards before tapping home in injury time. The Juventus striker has now scored 11 goals in the tournament, two more than French great Michel Platini, who netted nine times when he led France to glory in 1984. The 36-year-old is also just three goals away from matching Iranian Ali Daei's all-time international scoring record of 109. In Munich, Mats Hummels' own goal saw France seal a tight 1-0 win over Germany in their opening game of Euro 2020.
