Robert Lewandowski continues to make history in the Champions League.

In Lisbon, the 36-year-old Pole converted two penalty kicks, thereby matching the legendary Cristiano Ronaldo in terms of penalty execution.

Both C. Ronaldo and R. Lewandowski have now scored 19 goals in the Champions League from the penalty spot.

They are the record holders in this statistical category in the strongest football tournament on the Old Continent.

Barcelona, after the veteran's double, defeated Benfica's team 5-4.
