'I'm not closing the count just yet!': Cristiano Ronaldo insists there are MORE goals to come after he breaks Ali Daei's international scoring record with late match-winning double for Portugal against Republic of Ireland

Cristiano Ronaldo has promised there is even more to come from him after he established himself as international football's record goalscorer.

The 36-year-old, who recently returned to Manchester United, saw his first half spot-kick saved by Republic of Ireland's teenage keeper Gavin Bazunu, but then secured Portugal a 2-1 World Cup qualifier victory with two last-gasp headers to take his tally to a remarkable 111.

In the process, he eclipsed the 109 goals scored by Iran's Ali Daei, with whom he had been level before kick-off at the Estadio Algarve.
