Madrid's "Real" club on Tuesday night in the UEFA Champions League match lost 3:4 to the Gelsenkirchen "Schalke" team. Cristiano Ronaldo scored two goals for the Spanish club and became the top scorer in the history of all European club tournaments.
Just recently, Barcelona's superstar Lionel Messi scored his 76th goal and surpassed the Real club legend Raul.
However, the 30-year-old C.Ronaldo quickly surpassed the recent footballers, and on Wednesday he scored two goals in the Champions League match against "Schalke".
Next week, 27-year-old L.Messi will have the opportunity to match or surpass the Portuguese when Barca plays against the Manchester City team.
With 75 goals each, C.Ronaldo and L.Messi are tied for first place in Champions League matches. Cristiano has scored one more goal in qualifying matches, and two more in the UEFA Super Cup match. Messi added one more goal to his 75 Champions League goals in the 2011 UEFA Super Cup final.
Messi scored 76 goals in 96 matches, it took C.Ronaldo 118 matches to score 78 goals, and Raul scored his 76 goals in 168 matches.
