Guinean and Borussia Dortmund forward, Serhou Guirassy, has finished the 2024-2025 UEFA Champions League quarter-finals as the tournament’s leading goalscorer. �
Following the conclusion of the dramatic quarter-final second-leg matches on Wednesday, the 29-year-old Guirassy has netted an impressive total of 13 goals. This tally places him one goal ahead of his closest rival, Barcelona winger Raphinha, who has scored 12 goals in the competition. �
Guirassy’s remarkable goalscoring form included a stunning hat-trick in Dortmund’s second-leg victory over FC Barcelona on Tuesday. Despite Guirassy’s heroics at Signal Iduna Park, Dortmund’s 3-1 win was not enough to overturn the 4-0 deficit from the first leg, resulting in a 5-3 aggregate defeat and their elimination from the Champions League. �
Unfortunately for Guirassy, this means he will not have the opportunity to extend his goal tally further in the tournament as Dortmund’s campaign has come to an end. His 13 goals, however, stand as a testament to his prolific form throughout the Champions League this season, including a record-breaking hat-trick against Barcelona, making him the first African player to achieve this feat in the competition’s quarter-finals or later stages. He also set a new record for the most goals scored by an African player in a single Champions League season.
While Guirassy’s individual brilliance shone brightly, it was not enough to propel Borussia Dortmund to the semi-finals. The focus now shifts to the remaining teams as they continue their pursuit of the coveted Champions League trophy.
