According to UEFA.com, the Catalan centre back's strike against AS Roma was the 12th goal of his career in the competition, taking him to joint third in the all-time list.
The former Manchester United defender, who overtook Ramos' Champions League tally by one, has now gone level with Paris Saint-Germain star Dani Alves, once a former teammate of his.
Pique's goal was his first in this UCL campaign, and also his first since matchday two last season, when he helped the Blaugrana overcome Borussia Monchengladbach 2-1 away in Germany.
The 31-year-old now finds himself four strikes behind the all-time highest scoring defender in the competition Roberto Carlos, and three behind Los Blancos legend Ivan Helguera, who is in second place.
