#2 Most Champions League goals for a single club

Cristiano Ronaldo scored 105 goals for Real Madrid in the Champions League, which was the record for the most goals scored for a single club in the tournament. When Messi scored his second goal in the group stage game against Tottenham Hotspurs, he took his tally to 105 goals in the Champions League with Barcelona and moved alongside Ronaldo.

He would have certainly broken this record by now, however, a Forearm Fracture meant that he had to sit out both the legs of the group stage tie against Inter Milan, where Barcelona won the home game but drew away at Italy.

Barcelona travel to Philips Stadion to face PSV Eindhoven on 29th November and it could be the day that Messi finally adds another feather to his already crowded cap. Interestingly, the Barcelona skipper bagged a fantastic hat-trick against PSV at home in the opening day of the tournament, so the Argentinean Magician will be quietly confident of creating a new record.
