The goal was the only one of the day for Barcelona and was enough to give them their first Champions League points of the season, but for Pique, it bore more personal significance. For one thing, the strike took his tally in Champions League goals to 16, meaning he is the highest-scoring defender in the competition’s history, along with the legendary Roberto Carlos. Another little-known stat after Pique’s goal is the fact that it made him the oldest Barcelona player to ever score in the Champions League, surpassing Sylvinho.
