In our second instalment of our mini feature, we look at goals scored in arguably the biggest club game in football.

Again, Real Madrid legend Alfredo Di Stefano is leading the way with an impressive seven goals in European Cup (predecessor of the Champions League) finals – he is joined by another Los Blancos legend, Ferenc Puskas.

Di Stefano scored his impressive seven goals in five different finals, which means he also holds the records for goals in most European Cup finals.

Puskas, meanwhile, holds the record for most goals in a single European Cup final, with four in the 1960 final.

The record for most goals in a single UEFA Champions League (since 1992) final is shared by AC Milan's Daniele Massaro (1994), Dortmund's Karl-Heinz Riedle (1997), Milan's Hernán Crespo (2005), Milan's Filippo Inzaghi (2007) and Inter's Diego Milito (2010) - who all scored a brace.
