When has Cristiano Ronaldo scored his international goals?

The rhythms of Ronaldo's international goalscoring are not dissimilar to his statistics in the UEFA Champions League, where he also proved more dangerous after half-time. He is oddly goal shy between the 11th and 20th minutes with Portugal, but piles on the goals between the 76th minute and full time.

1–10 minutes: 13 (5 penalties)
11–20 minutes: 5 (1)
21–30 minutes: 15 (4)
31–40 minutes: 16 (3)
41–half-time: 7

FIRST HALF: 56

46–55 minutes: 12 (1)
56–65 minutes: 18 (2)
66–75 minutes: 10 (1)
76–85 minutes: 18 (2)
86–full time: 19 (1)

SECOND HALF: 77

How has Cristiano Ronaldo scored his international goals?

Ronaldo's right foot is his most potent weapon in international football, and he has only narrowly scored more with his left foot than he has with his head. Set plays and penalties account for approximately one in four of his 133 international strikes.

Left foot: 32
Right foot: 73
Head: 28

Direct free-kicks: 11
Open play: 102
Penalties: 20

Against which sides has Cristiano Ronaldo scored international goals?

Highlights: Portugal 6-0 Lithuania

Luxembourg are Ronaldo's favourite opponents, with 11 of his international goals coming in 11 games against the Grand Duchy. He has managed seven against Lithuania (in three games!) and Sweden (in seven), and found the net against 48 different international teams in all. At UEFA EURO 2020, he opened his accounts against Germany and France, but he has never registered against Italy or England.
