An interesting record was set at the 2026 World Cup.
Medianews.az reports that the captain of the Portugal national team, Cristiano Ronaldo, and the Uzbekistan national team player, Bahruz Karimov, came face to face on the same field with the largest age difference in the history of the tournament.
41-year-old Ronaldo is 22 years and 183 days older than 18-year-old Karimov. This figure is the largest age difference ever recorded between two players who appeared in the same game in World Cup history.
Thus, the Portugal vs. Uzbekistan match is remembered not only for the result on the field but also for this fact, which entered the WC record book. //Qafqazinfo
