Lewandowski è joined a very exclusive club. Thanks to his brace against Brest, the Barcelona striker è reached 101 total goals in the Champions League, becoming the third "centenarian" of the event. Ahead of him are only Cristiano Ronaldo (140 goals) and Messi (129).

At 36, the Polish center forward reaches a very prestigious milestone that certifies, if ever there was a need, his incredible talent in the goal zone. Of the three "centenarians", Lewandowski è the one with the best goal average ever (101 goals in 125 games)

"Not just the è having made history. I am very, very happy. Many years ago I would never have thought I could score more than 100 goals in the Champions League", the words of Lewandowski himself reported by Mundodeportivo after his brace against Brest in front of the blaugrana crowd.

Born in 1988, the Polish national has already scored seven goals in this new edition of the Champions League (in five matches). His first goal in Europe’s top competition dates back to the 2011/12 season with the Borussia Dortmund jersey. With the two goals he scored against Brest, he è took away the satisfaction of being juxtaposed with CR7 and Messi. And the meter is running. Lewandowski wants to score many more goals in the Champions League and beyond.
