Roma attacker Romelu Lukaku has entered the history books of UEFA’s Europa League competition.

The Belgian striker was back on a historic scoresheet tonight as he gave the Giallorossi a precious equalizer in the first leg of the Europa League playoffs with Feyenoord.

With this goal tonight, OptaPaolo reports that Lukaku has equaled Aritz Aduriz as the 3rd best Europa League goal-scorer of all time with 26 goals to his name.
