The 10 UEFA Champions League All-Time Top Scorers

While Cristiano Ronaldo is yet to score a goal in this season's UEFA Champions League, a former Real Madrid teammate has moved into fourth spot among the competitions' all-time top goalscorers.

Click through the gallery to see the 10 top goalscorers in UCL history.

Ronaldo remained scoreless in the 2018/19 edition, as his side beat Manchester United 1-0 on his return to Old Trafford on Tuesday night. 

Meanwhile, his former teammate Karim Benzema opened the scoring for Los Blancos in their 2-1 win over Viktoria Plzen.

Benzema, who had not found the back of the net for Real since 1 September, has now scored 57 goals in the Champions League.

In doing so, he moved one clear of former Real and Manchester United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy into fourth position among the competitions all-time top scorers.
