Serhou Guirassy exits the Champions League as its top scorer with 13 goals, but Raphinha and Lewandowski could overtake him if Barcelona reach the final.
Serhou Guirassy ended his Champions League campaign in spectacular fashion, scoring a hat-trick against Barcelona in the quarter-final second leg.
Despite the individual brilliance of the Guinean international, it wasn't enough to keep Borussia Dortmund in the competition, as Barcelona advanced to the semi-finals with a 5:3 aggregate win.
Guirassy can leave the competition with his head held high. He scored 13 goals in 14 Champions League matches, more than any other player in this season’s tournament, and also added five assists.
He now leads the Champions League scoring charts, but his position at the top is not yet secure. Two Barcelona players could still overtake him in the remaining stages of the competition. Raphinha has 12 goals and Robert Lewandowski follows with 11. If Barça reach the final, both will have multiple opportunities to surpass Guirassy.
Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane sits just behind with 10 goals, but with Bayern already eliminated, his tally is final.
Guirassy, who previously represented France at youth level, has firmly established himself among Europe's elite strikers this season and is sure to attract even more attention this summer.
