Ronaldo became the highest goalscorer in World Cup history on Tuesday when he helped Brazil overcome a spirited Ghana side 3-0 to go through to the quarter-finals.

Ronaldo’s fifth-minute goal took his World Cup finals tally to 15, one more than the previous record held by West German Gerd Mueller.

Adriano added the second in stoppage time at the end of the first half amid offside protests from Ghana and Ze Roberto sprung the offside trap in the 84th minute for the third.
