Football legend Lionel Messi is a carrier of many unbreakable records in the game and his influence has been of huge significance. The versatile forward has enjoyed a terrific time at club level, winning plenty of laurels for Barcelona. Like Cristiano Ronaldo, the Argentine has done remarkably well in the UEFA Champions League. We look at the UCL records held by Messi.

Messi has always been a one-club man and all of his 114 career Champions League goals have come for Barcelona. He is the leading goal-scorer for a single club in the competition. Cristiano Ronaldo follows suit with 105 goals for former club Real Madrid. Messi is the second-highest goal-scorer in the Champions League (114). He trails Ronaldo (128) by 14 goals.

Messi has the second-highest appearances for Barcelona in the UCL. He has featured in 141 matches so far and trails former mid-fielder Xavi, who made 151 appearances for the club. In terms of all-time appearances in the competition, Messi is sixth on the list. He needs two more games to go past former Real Madrid star Raul (142 matches).
