Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Raúl may be the all-time top scorers in the UEFA Champions League, but Radamel Falcao can brag about having a record none of these players possess.
The Chelsea and Manchester United flop returned this season to Monaco, and he's been able to make his presence felt with key goals for Les Princes. On Tuesday evening, Falcao scored his first multi-goal game in Europe since 2013, and also managed to score his 42nd goal in 46 matches in any competition sanctioned by UEFA.
That stat puts him ahead of some illustrious names in top flight football, as his 0.91 goal average in European competitions is the best among players with 30+ goals.
