Once again, Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo breaks another record, this time surpassing late Austro-Czech striker Josef Bican FIFA's record for the most goals scored in men's football.

During Manchester United's Saturday 3-2 win against Tottenham, Ronaldo scored all United's three goals at the Old Trafford Stadium, setting his 49th hat-trick and increasing his career goals to 807 in comparison with Bican's 805, noted the Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation (RSSSF).

FIFA praised the superstar for his achievement, tweeting, "The Legend continues."

Returning from an injury that caused him to miss last week's Manchester Derby against Manchester City, Ronaldo, 37, expressed that "Nothing beats the feeling of being back on the pitch and helping the team with goals and effort."

In a post on his Instagram account, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner underscored that Manchester United has "proven once again that we can beat any team in any given day, as long as we work hard and stand together as one."
