Who are the top 10 goal scorers in international football?
Many footballers dream of scoring goals for the national team. They consider playing for the team and scoring goals to be the glorious moment of their career. Because, the task is not easy. However, there are some who have made scoring goals for the national team a habit. The name of Cristiano Ronaldo comes first in the li
Ronaldo, who has scored the most goals in international football, is still scoring goals. Just behind the ‘CR Seven’ is another great star of all time, Lionel Messi. Ali Daei of Iran, who was on the top of this list for a long time before Ronaldo and Messi, is also on the list. Let’s take a look at who else is on the list.1. Cristiano Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo has been at the top of the list for scoring goals for the national team for four years. The Portuguese superstar has scored 138 goals in 221 matches so far. Ronaldo is currently largely out of reach for scoring goals in international football. The Portuguese superstar has not left football yet. If all goes well, he may be seen in the 2026 World Cup as well. As a result, his goal tally is definitely going to increase in the coming days. 2. Lionel Messi
Lionel Messi is at number two with 112 goals in 193 matches. The World Cup-winning Argentine star has very little chance of reaching the top. Because, he may not get a record-breaking match in the time he has. And unless something dramatic happens, both Messi and Ronaldo may end their international football careers with the 2026 World Cup. Considering the possible matches including the World Cup, it can be said that Messi is unlikely to break Ronaldo’s record. 3. Ali Daei
The name after Messi and Ronaldo in terms of scoring the most goals in international football is probably known to many. Before losing the throne to Ronaldo, Iranian footballer Ali Daei was the top scorer in international football for a long time. Daei, who played for Iran from 1993 to 2006, scored 108 goals in 148 matches. He lost that record to Ronaldo in September 2021.
