Uefa Champions League top scorers: Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo leads Liverpool trio Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane

Tom Doyle2 May 2018

Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo is almost certain to end the 2017-18 season as the Champions League's top goalscorer, but Liverpool's fearsome trio Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane are not giving up without a fight.

Ronaldo was in stunning form this season to became the first player to score in 10 consecutive Champions League matches - not to mention an extraordinary bicycle kick against Juventus in the quarter-finals.

The Madrid talisman remains out in front with 15 goals despite failing to score in either semi-final tie against Bayern Munich, while Liverpool's front three are sharing out the goals.

Salah and Firmino are both into double figures, while Mane's goal against AS Roma in the second leg of their semi-final took him to nine goals for the tournament.

The three Liverpool players make up the top four scorers this term along with Ronaldo, while the trio have outscored every other team in the competition between them this season.

As unlikely as catching Ronaldo may seem at this point, the Liverpool stars will have one last chance in the final against Ronaldo and Real on May 26.
