Manchester United FC midfielder Ryan Giggs has passed Raúl González as the leading appearance maker in the UEFA Champions League, informs UEFA official website.
Giggs came on against Ukraine’s FC Shakhtar Donetsk in Group A on Wednesday for his 145th appearance—qualifying included—in Europe’s premier club competition. FC Real Madrid’s legendary striker Raúl González held the previous record, with 144 appearances.
