Cristiano Ronaldo became the first player to score in all six Champions’ League group-stage matches in a season on Wednesday with a first-half strike for Real Madrid against Borussia Dortmund. The 32-year-old’s continued his fine form in the UEFA Champions League, as he drew level with his Barcelona rival Lionel Messi on 60 group-stage goals in total. It was his ninth goal for the season in the Champions League.

Overall, he has now netted an incredible 18 Champions League goals in 2017, breaking his own record of 16 from 2015.

 

Real, bidding for a third straight Champions League title, led Dortmund 2-1 at half-time, but are already guaranteed to qualify for the last 16 from Group H as runners-up to Tottenham Hotspur.
