Cristiano Ronaldo has made 177 Champions League appearances

Despite his disappointing results, Ronaldo set a personal record with 177 appearances in the Champions League. A record equal to former Real Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas.

The 36-year-old’s 177 appearances have come in 53 appearances for Manchester United, 101 for Real Madrid and 23 for Juventus. 

Ronaldo’s one goal was his 36th goal against a team in the Champions League. That is a record equal to that of new Paris Saint-Germain star Lionel Messi. 

Ronaldo rejoined Manchester United at the end of August in a reported €15 million ($17.7 million, plus another $9.5 million in add-ons) move , 12 years after leaving United for Real Madrid.

But a 35th-minute red card to Manchester United right back Aaron Wan-Bissaka drastically altered the tie as the Red Devils were forced into a defensive shell after subbing off Jadon Sancho to compensate.

Still, United looked happy to come away with the point after playing 55 minutes down a man. That withstanding 18 shots while only conceding a 66th-minute goal to Moumi Ngamaleu. That is, until the 95th minute.

U.S. men’s national team forward Jordan Pefok pounced on an errant. ill-advised back pass from Jesse Lingard in stoppage time and slotted in the dramatic winner to the roars of a jubilant home crowd.
