Cristiano Ronaldo scored 17 goals in the 2013–14 UEFA Champions League season.
Playing for Real Madrid, Ronaldo set a competition record with 17 goals in 11 appearances. He scored in the group stage and knockout rounds, including goals against Schalke, Borussia Dortmund, Bayern Munich and Atlético Madrid.
His record-breaking campaign was central to Real Madrid’s triumph in Lisbon. The club defeated Atlético Madrid 4–1 after extra time in the final to win La Décima, its long-awaited 10th European Cup or Champions League title. Ronaldo scored Real Madrid’s final goal of the match from the penalty spot.
The number is sometimes confused with his 16-goal total in the 2015–16 Champions League campaign. The 17-goal mark was also different from his wider 2013–14 season total, which included goals in La Liga and domestic competitions.
