Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski has joined an exclusive group of players, becoming only the third in Champions League history to score 100 or more goals. The Polish forward reached this remarkable milestone on Tuesday night with a penalty in the 10th minute, helping Barcelona secure a 3-0 victory over previously unbeaten Brest.

Lewandowski now stands alongside Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in the prestigious 100-goal club, a testament to his consistency and excellence in Europe’s premier club competition. Although Messi and Ronaldo have moved on from European football, their legendary status remains firmly intact, and they continue to hold the top spots on the all-time scoring charts.

At 36, Lewandowski is the only active player in the Champions League with 100 goals and is now on the hunt to challenge the records of both Messi and Ronaldo. Raúl, a Real Madrid legend, previously held the Champions League’s all-time scoring record with 71 goals in 142 matches, 66 of which came for Real Madrid, before being surpassed by Ronaldo and Messi.
