Thomas Müller humiliates PSG and Manchester City

Wednesday evening against Manchester United, Thomas Müller won his 100th match in the Champions League.

An atypical player due to his style of play and his physique, quite far from what modern footballers are looking for, Thomas Müller nonetheless remains a player who will have left his mark on the 21st century. Unstoppable player of the Bayern Munich and theGermany team since the start of his career. If he made his mark at the World Cup by scoring 10 goals in his first two appearances, he is also one of the key players in the Champions League in the 21st century.

Müller in the history of the C1

7th most capped player in the competition with 145 matches, he is in 8th place in the scorers ranking with 53 goals in total, and finally in 10th place among the best passers with 28 goals. He is therefore one of the four players appearing in the top 10 of these three rankings alongside Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Karim Benzema, no less.

Wednesday during the Bavarians’ great victory against Manchester United, the 2014 world champion did not start, as has been the case for several months with the emergence of Musiala, but came on at the end of the match and therefore participated in the victory of his people. And he offered himself a nice statistic since it was his 100th victory in the Champions League. The German attacking midfielder achieved a great feat because he is only the third player to reach this milestone after Cristiano Ronaldo (115 victories) and Iker Casillas (101.)

It can therefore be compared to many clubs since it has more success in the premier competition than certain major European clubs such as Inter Milan (98), Borussia Dortmund (81), Paris Sant-Germain (78 ), Atlético Madrid (76) and Manchester City (66). There are only 14 teams with more victories than him in C1, obviously with Real Madrid and their 286 successes in the lead.
