Cristiano Ronaldo's double for Real Madridin their 2-0 win over
Sevillain the Uefa Super Cup on Tuesday saw the Portuguese reach 70
goals in European competition and overtake Barcelonaforward Lionel
Messiin the process.
Ronaldo was a full 18 strikes behind Messi in April of 2012, but has
closed that gap after netting 12 and then a record 17 in the last two
editions of the Champions League - and his two goals on Tuesday mean
he is now two ahead of the Argentine in the all-time list of European
scorers.
The Portuguese now has 68 Champions League goals and two in the Uefa
Super Cup for a total of 70, which leaves him tied second in the list
of scorers in continental competitions with former AC Milan and
Juventus striker Filippo Inzaghi.
Ronaldo is now only six adrift of former Madrid team-mate Raul, who
scored 76 times in Europe for Real and Schalke.
Messi, meanwhile, has scored 68 times in total, with 67 of those
converted in the Champions League and one in the Uefa Super Cup.
In total, Ronaldo has now netted 254 goals in 247 games for Real Madrid.
