Gerard Pique scored his 16th Champions League goal on Wednesday against Dynamo Kiev in the Camp Nou and hit a couple of milestones along the way.
The goal means that Pique is now the joint highest scoring defender in Europe’s top competition after moving top of the pile and level with Roberto Carlos.
