Chelsea's Davide Zappacosta is the 100th Italian to score in the Champions League... but who else makes a list including Antonio Conte, Roberto Baggio and Mario Balotelli?

Davide Zappacosta marked his first Chelsea start with a spectacular goal as his side easily disposed of Qarabag - making a piece of history for his country in the process.

The wing back fired the ball home from close to the right touchline 30 minutes into the game and, although the effort was undoubtedly a cross, it was enough to ensure a century of Champions League goalscorers for his home country of Italy.

In total the 100 Italian Champions League goalscorers have netted 399 times between them, ranging from household names to one-game wonders.

The first came on September 16, 1992, when AC Milan's Demetrio Albertini found the net just seven minutes into his side's eventual 4-0 victory over Lyon, with the midfielder going on to net four times in the Champions League before retirement in 1995.
