Fresh off a four-goal performance vs. Andorra, Cristiano Ronaldo was at it again for Portugal in another World Cup qualifier against the Faroe Islands.

Ronaldo added to the one-sided match with a laser sent to the upper right-hand corner, giving Portugal a 4-0 lead after Andre Silva tallied a 37-minute hat trick. The goal was Ronaldo's 66th of his international career, moving him within two of Gerd Muller, Robbie Keane and Carlos Ruiz on the all-time scoring list.

Joao Moutinho and Joao Cancelo added stoppage-time goals for Portugal, which improves to 2-1-0 in World Cup qualifying and sits second in Group B behind Switzerland, which is a perfect 3-0-0.

Portgual returns to action next month against Latvia in a home qualifier.

Ronaldo, meanwhile, returns to Real Madrid, which will play at Real Betis on Saturday looking to snap a stretch of four straight draws across all competitions.
