Harry Kane Approaches Ronaldo's UCL Scoring Record
On October 21, 2026, Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane scored from the penalty spot in a UEFA Champions League match against Arsenal at the Allianz Arena, marking his 10th consecutive scoring appearance in the competition. This achievement places Kane just one game shy of Cristiano Ronaldo's record of 11 consecutive matches with a goal, set during the 2017/18 season while playing for Real Madrid.
Kane's scoring streak ties him with Ronaldo as the second player to reach 10 consecutive matches, surpassing former Manchester United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy and Poland's Robert Lewandowski, who each had nine consecutive matches. Kane's goal came during Matchday Three of the 2026/27 Champions League league phase, as noted by UEFA.
Ronaldo's record run included 17 goals and began with two goals in the 2017 Champions League final against Juventus. The current standings for consecutive Champions League scoring appearances are led by Ronaldo with 11, followed by Kane with 10, and Van Nistelrooy and Lewandowski with nine each.
