Alfredo Morelos finished with a record of the ‘Tiger’ Falcao

Alfredo Morelos does not stop scoring goals with Rangers from Scotland, this time, in the Europa League. This Thursday, the Colombian converted one of the goals with which his team beat Estrella Roja 3-0 and left his tournament quarterfinal series very well on the way.

Morelos, who arrived at Rangers in 2017 from Helsinki in Finland, managed to break a historical mark in this match, which was held by the Colombian National Team’s historical scorer, the ‘Tigre’ Radamel Falcao García.

The brand that Alfredo Morelos imposed

Morelos’ goal against Estrella Roja was the 32nd he has scored in the Europa League. With that mark, he becomes the Latin American player with the most goals in the history of the tournament, including his old denomination, Uefa Cup.

Now, Morelo aims to become the tournament’s all-time leading scorer. He today occupies the third box in that list, only surpassed by the Swedish Henrik Larsson, who scored 40, and the Dutch Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, author of 34 goals.
