Tuesday evening, during the fifth day of the Champions League, Robert Lewandowski wrote a new page in football history. Thanks to his two goals against Stade Brestois, the Polish striker from FC Barcelona reached the milestone of 100 goals in the Champions League, even reaching his 101st achievement in competition. Lewandowski thus becomes the third player to accomplish this feat, after Cristiano Ronaldo (141 goals) and Lionel Messi (129 goals).
The first goal came from a penalty that he himself had caused, following a foul by Brest goalkeeper Marco Bizot. With his usual composure, Lewandowski deceived the goalkeeper, scoring his 100th goal. At the very end of the match, he sealed Barça’s victory (3-0) by scoring his second goal with his right foot, in stoppage time.
Lewandowski: “I didn’t think I would reach this figure”
In the mixed zone, the 36-year-old striker did not hide his joy: “I am very happy. Years ago, I would never have imagined reaching 100 Champions League goals. Today we played with patience and vigilance, which allowed us to score more goals. » This double confirms his place among the legends of the competition and reinforces his importance within an FC Barcelona in full reconstruction.
