Gerard Pique is now the joint-top-scoring defender in Champions League history

Barcelona veteran Gerard Pique equalled a long-standing Champions League record by scoring the only goal in Wednesday's 1-0 victory over Dynamo Kiev, volleying home Jordi Alba's deep cross to secure Barca's first points of their group-stage campaign.

In finding the net, Pique drew level with Real Madrid great Roberto Carlos as the joint-highest scoring defender in Champions League history. The 34-year-old centre-back scored his 16th goal in the competition as Barca beat Kiev, thus matching the tally amassed by the former Brazil left-back.

He is lucky Ramos is no longer around. Ramos would have comfortably added 10 more before retirement if he was still very much active. Sadly, injury has blighted his performance.

It is strange seeing that almost all defenders on the list once played for Madrid.

with 3 ggoals

Well deserved
Shakira was clearly proud

Sergio Ramos is still a better goal scoring defender than Pique

Great names up there

Abeg Konman should swap him with Pseudo-striker, Luke de Jonzing, our resident slow-motion specialist.

Even Snail look Lukuluku finish and said Omo you slow gan o.

Injury won't make him successful or consistent.

The rejected stone helped them secure a much needed 3 points

Van na...

Very soon, defenders will be contesting with strikers for golden boot

Ben Chilwell coming to usurp that

Oko Shakira
If I'm a coach Pique and Marcos Alonso will play as strikers.

You mean all these defenders have more goals than Eden Hazard in the Champions League? Lol.
