Now Ronaldo is not able to play in the Champions League on his October 2 match against his former club Manchester United. However, it will happen when UEFA has banned more than one match on them. UEFA is the administrative institution of European football.
Ronaldo has played 154 league matches in the Champions League in the past 16 years. The Red Card is shown for the first time. Ronaldo has the record of the most 120 goals in the Champions League's 63-year history
