The title of Portugal's greatest football player of all time is frequently shared between two generational icons: Eusébio and Cristiano Ronaldo. Eusébio defined the golden era of Portuguese football in the 1960s with explosive goalscoring exploits for Benfica and the national team, while Cristiano Ronaldo shattered international and club scoring records, winning multiple Ballon d'Or awards and leading Portugal to glory at UEFA Euro 2016.
