The Champions League is his favourite competition

Who would not recognise him? The king of Europe for many and arguably the best player of this era, we all know Cristiano Ronaldo might start the season silently but he does not end it so. He always takes matches by the scruff of the neck and single-handedly wins them for his team - especially during the latter stages of the Champions League.

Ronaldo is the only player who has scored in every group stage match of the tournament. He also has the most hat-tricks in the knockout stages and the most goals in the final of the competition to mention just a few of his other exemplary records.

At the moment, Ronaldo is just waking up from slumber. Be certain though, that when he does, he is going to take the UCL by storm this season. Coupled with his burning desire to win the trophy to secure his legacy at the Allianz Stadium, we won't ber surprised if he rekindles his prowess in front of goal during the business end of the competiton.
