Ronaldo has also equalled another as holders Real Madrid booked their place in the Champions League quarter-finals on Tuesday, March 10. Ronaldo is now the all-time leading goalscorer in European competition after two goals in the upset 4-3 defeat against Schalke took his total to 78, surpassing the previous record held by another former Real stalwart, Raul. But, perhaps more importantly for his intense rivalry with Barcelona's Lionel Messi, Ronaldo equalled the Argentine's Champions League record of 75.
