    Lukaku’s stats are insane when you know he has been playing in Belgian national team since 2010.

    Hope Lucho Suárez can reach 70 on his next (and supposedly last game with Uruguay) against Bolivia

    The amount of goals C. Ronaldo (and many european players) have on “small islands and states” is crazy though. Some dudes are literally dentists, butchers and gardeners hahahaa

    Suarez, Neymar and Messi are among the 8 South American players in history to reach 50 international goals.

    Counting active players, Cavani is another one.

    Tells you about how a massive feat that is in the region.

      Qualifying for the tournaments is easier overall for the big South American teams because they are much better than the weaker teams over the course of many games, but there is no comparison between the actual difficulty of the games. Weak South American teams are still incredibly difficult to beat. There isn’t a single easy game in CONMEBOL
