Haaland Overtakes Shevchenko in Champions League Top Scorers List
Legendary Ukrainian striker Andriy Shevchenko has officially dropped out of the top 10 all-time scorers in the UEFA Champions League. His place was taken by Erling Haaland after the Norwegian netted twice against Real Madrid in yesterday's match.
Haaland's brace, which wasn’t enough to secure victory for Manchester City, brought his total to 49 goals in the competition. In doing so, he surpassed both Shevchenko and Zlatan Ibrahimović, who were tied in 10th place with 48 goals each. Shevchenko’s goals came during his time with Dynamo Kyiv, AC Milan, and Chelsea.
The top spot on the Champions League all-time scorers list remains with Cristiano Ronaldo, who has an incredible 140 goals to his name.
