In , he netted 15 goals in just ten matches as Bayern won the trophy, and he already has nine goals in five games this term. All in all, he has a ratio of 0. Only Messi and Ronaldo are ahead of him on the all-time goalscoring list, as well, and you can expect Lewandowski to keep finding the back of the net for a while longer.
The Argentinian may have got the better of old rival Ronaldo in this particular ranking, but he only comes home in sixth place himself. Messi did not take as long as the Portugal star to get going in European competition, although he did score just twice in his first three years in the competition.
It is instead Barcelona's patchy form in more recent years that stopped him from scoring at the rate we have become used to. Still, goals in matches at a ratio of 0. During the European Cup's formative years, Real Madrid were top of the tree, winning the trophy for five consecutive years, including its inaugural edition. Di Stefano was present for all of them, one of the star men of a team full of world-class talent.
In just 58 matches, he scored 49 times, taking home the tournament's Golden Boot in and Truly one of the greatest players ever to play the game and a more-than-worthy fifth place on this list of elite goalscorers. Altafini only played 28 times in the competition, but he was prolific, scoring 24 times at a rate of 0. It was during spells with AC Milan 20 and Juventus four when he found the back of the net in the tournament. As Milan triumphed, Altafini finished top goalscorer with 14 strikes, including both goals in the final win over Benfica.
Seven years with Napoli, who didn't qualify for the European Cup until , ultimately stopped the striker from scoring even more. Football Transfer News. Which player has the best goal ratio in the world?

However, because Messi has a clear ascendancy when it comes to assists, this often leads people to fall into the trap of underestimating Ronaldo's proficiency in this area. Ronaldo's assist numbers are still extremely impressive compared to the other mere mortals that play the beautiful game.
In fact, Ronaldo has more in the Champions League , with 41 assists to Messi's 35 assists - granted Ronaldo has played 31 more matches than Messi, but this is still an impressive tally. With that said, you can't ignore Messi's overall assist stats - he takes this category comfortably.
Winner: Messi. The passing stats point to a clear winner in this category; Lionel Messi. But again, Ronaldo's passing abilities are often underestimated. Messi also dominates the throughball statistics, making successful throughballs in that same time period, compared to Ronaldo's 81 successful throughballs.
Although Messi's passing numbers are clearly superior, Ronaldo's are still impressive. It's also likely that his passing stats would have been significantly higher before when he was more involved in the creative build-up play. Ronaldo started his career as a tricky winger, when his game was all about running at and beating defenders with his pace and skill. Messi also started his footballing career stuck to the by-line, eventually moving to a more central role as his primary position for most of his career.
However, Messi plays a very different game to a traditional centre-forward, with his natural Number 10 abilities making him the perfect False 9. As a result Messi comes much deeper, towards the play, rather than making runs and playing off the shoulder of the defenders. Heading is without doubt the most clear-cut category, with Ronaldo's heading stats absolutely dwarfing Messi's.
Over their entire careers, Ronaldo has scored headers in appearances , whereas Messi has scored just 26 headers in appearances. Of course, when you look at their respective builds, the way they play, the way their teams play, these numbers are hardly surprising. Winner: Ronaldo. However, Messi converts a higher percentage of his shots, scoring a goal with every 5. Leo Messi also gets more of his shots on target, with However, despite Messi's superior efficiency, the sheer volume of attempts Cristiano Ronaldo is able to produce is incredible and an important skill in itself.
He also has the edge in terms of shooting from long-range, as well as with his weak foot and head, so that's enough to call this one a tie. When it comes to penalties, Ronaldo's numbers are comfortably superior to Messi's, although perhaps not by as much as some people think.
The media perception is that Messi is unreliable from the spot, whereas Ronaldo is the ultimate ice-cool penalty king - the truth, is somewhere in between. Excluding shootouts, Ronaldo has scored an impressive penalties with 28 misses over his whole career, whereas Messi has scored penalties with 29 misses.
Ronaldo's stats are clearly better, however he's not as reliable as he is sometimes portrayed, with other elite strikers such as Lewandowski and Ibrahimovic boasting significantly better conversion rates. In terms of big penalty misses, Messi missed one in the Copa America final shootout against Chile, and the Champions League semi-final miss against Chelsea.
For Ronaldo, his biggest penalty misses came in the Champions League final shootout against Chelsea his Man Utd side would ultimately go on to win due to John Terry's miss , and in the Champions League semi-final shootout against Bayern Munich which did prove fatal for Real Madrid. In recent years, Messi has become the ultimate free kick specialist, whilst Ronaldo's proficiency in this area has diminished somewhat alarmingly.
However, to say that this category is therefore cut-and-dry is simple recency bias. For example, it may be true that from , Messi scored 23 free kick goals to Ronaldo's 5 ; however, from , Ronaldo scored 21 direct free kick goals to Messi's 3. In terms of the all time career stats, Messi has now scored 58 free kick goals compared to Ronaldo's 56 free kick goals.
A few years ago this category seemed like a lock for Cristiano Ronaldo, but Leo Messi's stunning turnaround in recent years means he now boasts the greater overall total as well as the better free kick conversion rate, so he takes this one.
The rate at which Messi and Ronaldo score hat tricks is scarcely believable, with a staggering between them; 55 career hat tricks for Messi and 58 career hat tricks for Ronaldo. Ronaldo may still have the overall lead, but Messi has a slight edge in terms of frequency.
Messi scores a hat trick every These numbers are so tight, and to add to this, their hat trick count in league games is: 36 hat tricks for Messi and 37 hat-tricks for Ronaldo. And in the Champions League?
No other footballers in history have sustained such elite levels for such a long period of time. No other player in history has won more than 3!

In terms of golden boots, Messi has finished as the league's top scorer 8 times , winning the European Golden Shoe on 6 of those occasions.
Ronaldo has finished as top scorer in the league 5 times once in the Premier League, once in Serie A, and 3 times in La Liga , winning 4 European Golden Shoes in the process. Ronaldo has won the Puskas award for best goal in a calendar year 2 nominations , whereas Messi has so far failed to win this award despite being nominated 7 times. Messi has however won the Golden Ball , awarded to the player of the tournament at the World Cup, after taking his Argentina side to the final in , narrowly losing out to Germany in the final.
In terms of trophies , Messi has the overall lead, with 38 trophies to Ronaldo's 34 trophies including Messi's Olympic triumph and U World Cup. Messi has 10 league titles to Ronaldo's 7, but Ronaldo has the ascendancy in terms of Champions League triumphs with 5 to Messi's 4.
There's not a lot in it, but the overall figures means Messi currently edges this one. In short, Messi and Ronaldo have a similar number of records to their name. The most startling is maybe Messi's Guiness World Record for scoring 91 goals in a calendar year in To put this into context, Messi's next best is 60 and Ronaldo's best is To score 91 goals in a year is other worldly. Ronaldo however dominates the Champions League record books , with most goals, most assists, most free kick goals, most hat-tricks shared with Messi , and most goals in a single season.

Both players can claim to have enjoyed fantastic careers at international level - their numbers aren't quite as other-wordly as what they produce for their club sides, but they are still extremely impressive nonetheless. Ronaldo scores a goal every minutes for Portugal, and Messi scores a goal every minutes for Argentina. When you factor in assists, Ronaldo makes a goal contribution every minutes , whereas Messi makes a goal contribution every minutes.
Ronaldo is Portugal's all-time top scorer with goals in appearances , and Messi is Argentina's all-time top scorer with 80 goals in appearances.
