At the age of 39 years and 253 days, Cristiano Ronaldo can now finally tick the box, claim one up on Lionel Messi, and place himself alongside Pele and Maradona.
No career of a footballing galactico can be truly complete without making an appearance at Hampden Park. Or so us proud Scots might like to claimPele graced the hallowed turf in 1966 in a 1-1 friendly draw with Brazil. Maradona visited with Argentina in 1979 and scored his first international goal in the process. Messi may have three more Ballon d’Or trophies than the five claimed by the superstar from Portugal, but he has never made an appearance at the oldest international football stadium in the world.
