With 122 goals, Ronaldo is the all-time record goalscorer in the Champions League, and earlier on became the first man in history to score 100 Champions League goals with one club (a feat now shared with Messi).

His superhuman performances on the continent had been immensely crucial to Real Madrid winning each of the last three UCL titles consecutively, as Ronaldo always found a way to lift himself on the biggest stages to deliver the goods for his team.

It is for this reason that he earned himself the moniker 'Mr. Champions League' and Juventus would be grateful to no longer have to come up against him, having felt the wrath of his boot on 10 occasions (which is the most he has scored against any opponent in the competition).

It, therefore, should not come as a surprise to anybody that till date he remains the only man to have tasted 100 Champions League victories, with the icon achieving the milestone in Juve's 1-0 victory over Valencia.

As expected, Ronaldo could not let such a momentous occasion pass him by without stamping his authority (even though he was not on the scoresheet) setting up Mandzukic for the only goal of the game and as long as he is in their ranks, Juventus would fancy their chances of ending their long drought in the competition where Ronald has reigned supreme.
