Full-time | Manchester City 2-2 Brighton
Despite taking the lead two times throughout the game, Brighton hold Manchester City in a 2-2 stalemate at home.
Erling Haaland drew the first blood from the spot, which was canceled out only ten minutes later, through a blistering free-kick by Pervis Estupinan. Right before the break, Omar Marmoush produced a lightning strike, which put City ahead at the break. However, Brighton equalized only three minutes into the second half, as Hinshelwood's strike forced Khusanov to fire it into his own net.
Following that, Brighton had a couple of chances, with Baleba missing a golden opportunity, but they fought well to snatch a point away from Etihad, intensifying the qualification race for the top four spots in the 2024-25 Premier League!

While the Ivorian found the net just 10 times in 48 games for the Hammers, he experienced a career revival at Ajax, netting an impressive 32 times in 50 games. Sebastian Haller made his Champions League debut in the 2021-22 season, scoring in his first seven games in the competition, including four in his debut against Ruben Amorim’s Sporting. Haller scored just one more UEFA Champions League goal and was given just 10 minutes in the German side’s 2024 final defeat to Real Madrid.
9. Rabah Madjer | Algeria | 12 Goals:
Image Credit: Pinterest
Madjer is considered one of the best players in the history of Algerian football and shot to renown as a Porto player in the 1980s. He scored six goals on Porto’s first UEFA Champions League winning run, including the equalizer against Bayern Munich in the final at the Ernst-Happel-Stadion. Madjer retired in 1992 and twice managed his home country, having played in their first ever World Cup in 1982.
8. Vincent Aboubakar | 14 Goals | Cameroon:
Image Credit: GOAL
Aboubakar made his UEFA Champions League debut in 2014 with Porto, scoring a goal in a 6-0 thrashing of BATE Borisov. He came back with a goal in the return fixture at home to Shakhtar and scored his first knockout goal against Basel but was an unused substitute in both quarter-final legs against Bayern Munich, including the 6-1 defeat that sent Porto out.
In the next two seasons, one spent at Porto and the other at Besiktas, Aboubakar netted six times but failed to get out of the group stage. He scored his final Champions League goals in 2017 with a brace against Monaco but was injured for the last 16 tie against Liverpool, a 5-0 defeat at the Estádio do Dragao.
7. Seydou Doumbia | 15 Goals | Ivory Coast:
Image Credit: ESPN
Doumbia scored 15 UEFA Champions League goals in 31 games for three different clubs in his career. He moved to Basel in 2016, scoring just once in six games before ending his European run at Sporting in the 2017-18 season. He made his debut with CSKA Moscow, scoring five times in the 2011-12 season, but never hit that height again.
6. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang | Gabon | 17 Goals:
Image Credit: Daily Sports Nigeria
Aubameyang primarily scored his goals with Dortmund, he managed just two for Chelsea, but Gabon’s all-time top scorer never made it past the UEFA Champions League quarter finals having twice exited at that stage in 2014 and 2017. Aubameyang is, however, the all-time top goal scorer in Europa League history, netting 34 times in 62 games.
5. Riyad Mahrez | Algeria | 20 Goals:

Riyad Mahrez kicked things off with two goals in Leicester’s opening group match against Brugge before finding the net two more times ahead of the knockouts. He played every minute of Leicester’s knockout run but could only manage a single assist in that time.
In the 2020-21 season, Mahrez was a crucial player on Manchester City’s run, scoring in the quarters before three goals against PSG in the UEFA Champions League semi-finals. However, he could not find the net as City lost 1-0 to Chelsea in the final. By the time of the 2023 win, Mahrez had fallen down the City pecking order and stayed on the bench for the whole of the 1-0 win against Inter.
4. Sadio Mane | Senegal | 27 Goals:
Image Credit: This is Anfield
The 2019 and 2022 African Player of the Year Mane was a talisman in Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool rebuild. Joining in 2016, Mane along with Salah and Roberto Firmino combined to be a lethal front three with the Senegalese player scoring 10 goals in the 17-18 UEFA Champions League season, a figure only beaten by his team-mates and Cristiano Ronaldo. Moving to Bayern Munich in 2022, Mane struggled to replicate his Liverpool form but still scored three goals in the group stages before departing for Al-Nassr in 2023.
3. Samuel Eto'o | Cameroon | 30 Goals:
Image Credit: FC Barcelona
The four-time African player of the year winner, a figure only matched by Yaya Toure, scored most of his UEFA Champions League goals for Barcelona including six in their 2005-06 triumph and four in the 2008-09 win under Pep Guardiola. Moving to Inter in 2009, Eto’o became the fourth player in history to win back-to-back Champions Leagues at different clubs and played every game in the Jose Mourinho-masterminded run. Still considered by many to be the best African player of all-time, Samuel Eto’o was a deadly mix of pace and clinical finishing.
2. Didier Drogba | Ivory Coast | 44 Goals:
Image Credit: UEFA
With 10 goals in 10 finals, the Ivorian was the man for the big occasion, and he made his UEFA Champions League debut with Marseille in 2003, scoring five goals in six games. Getting his move to Chelsea the following season, Drogba hit the same number in the 2004-05 campaign but managed just one goal in seven appearances the next year.
He scored twice in the 2008 semi-final to set up a clash against rivals Manchester United, but a John Terry slip in a rain-soaked Moscow denied Chelsea their first UEFA Champions League title. But that success would come in 2012 with Drogba playing a starring role in the final.
1. Mohamed Salah | Egypt | 50 Goals:
Image Credit: Egyptian Streets
Considering he scored just three goals in his first 15 UEFA Champions League appearances, betting on Mohamed Salah to one day become the leading African goal-scorer would have seemed a waste of money back in 2016. Famously a second choice of Klopp – the German preferred Julian Brandt – Salah hit 10 goals in his first UEFA Champions League season at Anfield, propelling Liverpool to their first final since 2007 but an early injury caused by Sergio Ramos forced him to the sideline as Real Madrid won 3-1 in Kyiv.

If you say "Theatre of Dreams", "Old Trafford", or the "Busby Babes" to someone, there is only one club that comes to mind: Manchester United.

Icons like Sir Bobby Charlton to the modern heroes like Ruud Van Nistelrooy, Wayne Rooney, Ryan Giggs and Cristiano Ronaldo have clothed the famous red jersey.
While the club has struggled to reach the heights of the 1990s to 2000s in recent years, The Red Devils are one of the most successful clubs in England, winning three UEFA Champions Leagues to their name, one of the best teams to have ever played in Europe as well.

Ajax are a wonderful football club, and their story is represented in as much as one word: innovation. The birthplace of 'Modern Football', their academy, De Toekomst, has been a messenger of talents. From Johan Cruyff to Frenkie de Jong. Their 73 trophies, including their European exploits, show their philosophy that prioritizes skill and vision.
The club has been massively successful in their 123-year history, winning four Champions League crowns, three of which were won in a row, as well as 36 Eredivisie crowns, which makes this club one of the most decorated clubs in world football.
Olympiacos is known to have a hugely intimidating home atmosphere when visiting teams come to their ground, the Karaiskakis Stadium. Despite only holding 33,334 fans, it's a well-known fortress for the home team. There's no doubt that they have dominated Greek football since their inception in 1925. From legendary figures to the current team, it has helped the club propel them to 80 trophies and cemented their name into one of the most decorated clubs.

Vincent Kompany will be looking to change fortunes and restore Bayern to the top of German football. From their Allianz Arena, a modern-day stadium, they have showcased a brand of football that is both efficient and elegant. Bayern Munich is one of the most decorated clubs in Germany and world football too.
10x German Super Cup Winner (22/23 , 21/22 , 20/21 , 18/19 , 17/18 , 16/17 , 12/13 , 10/11 , 90/91 , 87/88)

In 91 years of their existence as a football club, formerly known as Al-Ashbal Club, they have won 35 league titles and 21 Jordan FA Cups, although domestic success has been more limited in recent years. The club is yet to have any success on the AFC stage.
From the banks of the Douro River, FC Porto has risen as Portugal's footballing flare and one of the most decorated clubs in world football. This is the football club that gave us players such as Deco, Ricardo Carvalho and, of course, the hero Benni McCarthy. After the 2004 season's UEFA Champions League winning campaign, Porto haven't seen any success in Europe since, they have still managed to win 30 Primeira Liga titles, 19 Taca de Portugal, two European Cups and two Europa Leagues during their 130-year history.

There is no denying that Barcelona's most successful period was the late 2000s and into the 2010s, led by the genius Lionel Messi, arguably the greatest player to ever kick a football and helped to make one of the most decorated clubs in world football. Their 98-trophy tally does not just recount victories but also moments that changed Spanish football. Camp Nou has been the hub of 'tiki-taka' football - a poetic style, enchanting and uniquely Barcelona's.

Los Blancos is the most decorated club in Spain showcasing 102 trophies.
Just missing out on the top four is one of the most decorated clubs of South American football, Atletico Penarol. Why is this club so special and represents why they have been so successful over the years, is that they have never been relegated from the top division in Uruguay since being founded in 1891. It is a witness to longevity and consistent excellence. With a total of 116 trophies, they are not just Uruguayan legends.

Rangers have marginally fewer trophies to their city rivals Celtic with 55 Scottish first-tier League Championships since 1890 and that's why they are the second most decorated clubs in Scottish Premiership. With their home one of the most famous stadiums in the British Isles in the form of Ibrox, it is no wonder they have managed such glory when they can create such an atmosphere.
Celtic Park, also known as Parkhead, and renowned for its thrilling atmosphere, has seen countless memories created in the club's 137-year history. Because of their dominance, they are the most decorated club in Scottish football. Celtic were the first club in Great Britain to win the European Cup.
Al-Ahly tops this list and becomes the most decorated club in world football with 123 trophies. With a legacy stretching back to 1907 and 123 trophies to their name, they are more than Egyptian legends; they are global titans. They have won 43 Egyptian Premier League titles, 39 Egypt Cups, 12 CAF Champions Leagues, 14 Egyptian Super Cups, eight CAF Super Cups and four African Cup Winners' Cups, just to name a few. They are essentially the African version of Real Madrid and continue to dominate Egyptian domestic football to this day.
