UCL: UEFA releases Champions League all-time top scorers [Top 10]


 UEFA, on Wednesday night, revealed Champions League all-time top scorers.

The Europe football governing body released a list of the top ten all-time highest goal scorers in a post via its Twitter handle following the completion of this season’s quarter-final first-leg fixtures on Wednesday.

Recall that Real Madrid defeated Chelsea 3-1 at Stamford Bridge, thanks to Karim Benzema’s hat-trick, while Villarreal won 1-0 against Bayern Munich.

Below is the top ten UEFA’s all-time top scorers:

1. Cristiano Ronaldo – 140
