Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo goal for goal


It is one of the UEFA Champions League's best sub-plots. The two greatest forwards of the age have long since surpassed Raúl González's goals total in the competition and, by the end of the 2014/15 campaign, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were level on 77.
Ronaldo – who then managed 16 goals last term, one off his own competition record – pulled ten clear of the Argentinian but Messi's hat-tricks against Celtic and Manchester City this season have closed the gap. Ronaldo, whose subsequent double at Bayern München made him the first player to score 100 times in UEFA club competition, now leads 97-94; in overall UEFA club competition goals it is 100-97 in his favour.

UEFA.com has listed all of Messi and Ronaldo's UEFA Champions League strikes since they first found the net at this level and picked out some noteworthy stats amid all the numbers. 
  • Messi has only been on the losing side three times when he has scored
  • Ronaldo has netted twice or more on 26 different occasions
  • Messi leads Ronaldo 7-5 in hat-tricks
  • Ronaldo did not score until his 30th game in the competition
  • Ronaldo had notched in both round of 16 legs five seasons running until 2016/17
  • Both players have hit the target once in two separate finals
