Champions League top scorer: Robert Lewandowski out on his own with seven goals

Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski scored twice on Matchday 5 – bringing up a century of competition goals in the process – to move out on his own as 2024/25 UEFA Champions League top scorer with seven goals.

Lewandowski was tied with Viktor Gyökeres, Harry Kane and Raphinha heading into Matchday 5, but is now two ahead of the chasing pack after racking up a double in Barcelona's 3-0 defeat of Brest. The first of those two made him just the third player in UEFA Champions League history to register 100 goals in the competition proper.
