Real Madrid’s Ronaldo makes history with 100th European goal

Cristiano Ronaldo 100 European goals

Cristiano Ronaldo has become the 1st player to reach a century of goals in Eufa club competitions after scoring twice for Real Madrid at Bayern Munchen.

                The Portugal forward opened his EU club goals account in Manchester United’s 3-0 win against Debrecen on 9 August 2005.

                Eleven years and 8 months on, he scored twice as Real came from behind to beat Bayern 2-1 at Munchen, bringing his goals account to 100.

                Ronaldo got 50 goals in April 2013 with a double against Galatasaray. He achieved his half-century after 96 matches despite managing a solitary strike in his first 32 European league games for Sporting CP and Manchester United.

                His 2nd 50 has taken just 47 games and all but three of his goals have come in the Eufa Champions league proper.

                Ronaldo is closely trailed by Barcelona’s Leonel Messi who is on 97 European club competition goals.
