Real Madrid center-back Sergio Ramos joined the starting lineup of the Spanish national team in the match of the fifth round of the elite division of the League of Nations against Switzerland.
For the 34-year-old Spaniard, this match was 177th in a Fury Roja shirt, surpassing Gianluigi Buffon's record for the most European national team matches..
Previously, the most experienced goalkeeper was the European record holder for this indicator, having 176 matches for the Italian national team, but now this record belongs to Sergio Ramos.
However, the Spanish center-back has very little left before the world record (184 matches), owned by the former Egyptian midfielder Ahmad Hassan.
