The Real Madrid forward scored his 12th goal of the European campaign against Roma on Wednesday evening, taking an already stellar history in the competition to new heights

Cristiano Ronaldo continued his implausible Champions League goalscoring exploits againstRoma on Wednesday night, helping Real Madrid to a routine 2-0 win at the Stadio Olimpico.

The Portuguese has a quite astonishing record in Europe's elite club competition, previously scoring 17 goals in a single campaign - in 2013-14 - and, though his last goal was heavily deflected, it furthers an amazing legacy.

Zinedine Zidane's men were ultimately indebted to Ronaldo's strike as Roma's resistance was finally broken following a first half in which Madrid failed to register a shot on target.
