1. Most appearances in the Champions League
A career spanning over 15 years with some of the best European teams, Ronaldo has featured in the Champions League with 3 different teams and has won the Cup with 2 of them. Over these years, he has amassed an impressive 158 caps for Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus. This has been helped by the fact that all these teams have been strong contenders and have gone deep into the tournament.

He, however, is behind his former Real Madrid captain, the Spanish World Cup winner Iker Cassilas who leads the all time list with 173 caps. Given that both of them are still active and would be featuring for their teams in the Round of 16 ties of this year's tournament as well, the record may take a couple of years to break.
But with Cassilas at the end of his career, his contract with Porto runs down at the end of the season, it's inevitable Ronaldo overtakes his record to be the most capped player in the Cup's history.
