Ronaldo Closes In On Van Nistelrooy And All-time Champions League Top Scorers by Nedlog(m): 12:59pm On Oct 23, 2013
Cristiano Ronaldo will be out to overhaul Ruud
van Nistelrooy and
move into third place on
the all-time Champions
League goalscorers' list
when Real Madrid take on Juventus on
Wednesday night.
The Blancos ace has
been in scintillating
form in this season's tournament, having netted five times in his
first two outings, against Galatasaray and
Copenhagen, to take his tally in Europe's
premier club cup competition (excluding
qualifying rounds) to 55 goals from 94
matches.Consequently, Ronaldo is now just one place
and one goal behind former PSV,
Manchester United and Madrid hot shot Van
Nistelrooy. The Dutchman, who will be fielding your
questions on Twitter via @Heineken using
#sharethesofa during Wednesday night's
action, struck a staggering 56 times in just
73 appearances in the Champions League
proper, meaning the now-retired striker averaged 0.77 goals per game. Only Lionel Messi can boast a more
impressive strike rate. The Barcelona
superstar, who strengthened his grip on
second place in the all-time top 10 with his
first-half effort against AC Milan on
Tuesday night, has now scored 63 goals in 81 matches, which works out at 0.78 goals
per game. If he maintains that consistency, Messi
could conceivably usurp Real Madrid icon
Raul at the summit of the standings as the
Argentine is now just eight goals behind the
Spanish striker, who netted 71 times in 144
games.
