I had a search, and found a thread over 10 months old, so instead of resurrect that, I thought to open a new one, mods, do what you need to. Anyway. Name the five African players to have scored more than 10 goals in the Champions League.

Carra :pac:

No but he has the unenviable record of scoring more times against Liverpool than for them.

You are thinking along the right lines though.

That's one. As far as I'm aware there is only one more in competitive football. *

*Carra scored a OG penalty in his testimonial as he's a toffee through and through.

Hickson is correct also. Just because it was before you were born doesn't mean it didn't happen;)

Not him I'm afraid.

Just to be a bit more clear, this is all-time record, not record for one game.

Denis Law, then playing for Manchester City, scored 6 goals against Luton in 1961 and yet lost. How?

Re Allen Simmonssen.......he transferred from Barca to an English 2nd division team in the mid 80s, in a time unlike now when foreign players were very rare in England.
