Who are the record Champions League goalscorers?

BBC Sport senior journalist

His first-half goal against Inter Milan was his 71st in 99 Champions League appearances, tying him with Real legend Raul Gonzalez.

Only 12 players have scored 50 or more goals in the tournament's history, with Mbappe the sixth-fastest to reach his half-century.

So which other players have hit this landmark - and beyond - and who has reached it the fastest?

Who has scored the most Champions League goals?

Cristiano Ronaldo has racked up an astonishing 140 Champions League goals, with Lionel Messi second on 129 .

Neither of those famous rivals are currently playing in European leagues and it is highly likely their totals will remain unchanged.

Third-place Robert Lewandowski is still playing professional football, but will also not be able to build on his tally following his move from Barcelona to Chicago Fire.

2022 Ballon d'Or winner Karim Benzema is next in line in fourth place, but is currently a free agent.

And Raul, with whom Mbappe shares fifth place, retired from professional football in 2015.

It means Mbappe could still become the all-time top scorer - but would need to nearly double his current tally over the rest of his career.

Who has reached 50 Champions League goals the fastest?

The Manchester City striker averaged just over one goal per game in order to score 50 times in only 49 appearances - a record which is guaranteed to stand for a few more years at least, with no challengers on the horizon.

It has set Haaland clear at the top by 13 games.

Sitting just behind Mbappe in the league's all-time scorers list - and being one year younger - means if the striker's European form continues, he is another strong contender to become the overall record-holder.
