Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos has become the top-scoring defender in the history of La Liga, following his goal against Real Sociedad on Sunday.

The Spanish centre-back has now 68 goals in the Primera Division, overhauling Barcelona’s Ronald Koeman.

Sergio Ramos’ effort to put Real Madrid 1-0 up away to Real Sociedad on Sunday was a historic strike as it pushed the centre-back to the top of La Liga’s all-time scoring charts for defenders.

Ramos, who converted from the penalty spot to break a scoreless stalemate at Anoeta, overtook former Barcelona man Ronald Koeman with the effort, taking him to 68 goals in his top-flight career.

The 34-year-old defender, who has won both the European Championships (twice) and the World Cup with the national side, began his professional career with Sevilla in 2004, scoring two goals with the Andalusian club.

He moved to Real Madrid in 2005 and has remained at Santiago Bernabeu ever since, playing a key role in the club winning four La Liga titles and the Champions League on as many occasions.
