Cristiano Ronaldo's century of European goals: Sportsmail breaks down the Real Madrid star's stunning hundred after brace against Bayern Munich

Cristiano Ronaldo became the first player to reach a European century after his brace in Munich helped but Real Madrid on course for a place in the last four of the Champions League.

The 99th and 100th goals of his European career came 4,264 days after his first, which arrived for Manchester United in a 3-0 qualifying round victory over Debrecen in 2005.

What has followed has been one of the great careers in European football, which has yielded a century of goals in just 140 games and has seen him lift the Champions League trophy on three occasions.
