<p>As shown in the graphic above, Cristiano Ronaldo ranks third, having scored in 16 consecutive campaigns from 2006/07 to 2021/22. Robert Lewandowski is tied for fourth with Raúl; however, Lewandowski could surpass the former Spanish captain if he scores this season with Barcelona. Antoine Griezmann and Kylian Mbappé are also active in their scoring runs, with Mbappé potentially poised to break Benzema’s record in the coming decade.</p>
