The next best is Lionel Messi, who scored 13 times for Barcelona in both 2012 and 2016 - something Ronaldo also did in 2012 and 2014. The Portugal international also has the best goalscoring record in a single Champions League season, with 17 goals in 2013-14. This season, he is also the leader in the top scorer race with six goals, ahead of Tottenham's Harry Kane, who has scored five times so far.</blockquote>
