Cristiano Ronaldo Equals New Champions League Record

Cristiano Ronaldo achieved yet another remarkable landmark on Tuesday night after notching a record-equalling Champions League strike in the routine win over Bayer Leverkusen.

The Portuguese superstar added the third for Juventus as the Italians cruised to a 3-0 triumph over their German rivals to go top of Champions League Group D on a rainy night in Turin.

And Ronaldo’s latest European strike, his 127th in the Champions League, saw him score against a different opponent for the 33rd time, equalling the record set by Real Madrid icon Raul.

The former Manchester United and Madrid hero will not want to rest on his laurels, though, as arch rival and Barcelona star Lionel Messi has scored against 32 different teams in the Champions League.
