Oldest English goalscorers in the UEFA Champions League since 2000/01

Former England right-back Lee Dixon is the oldest UEFA Champions League goalscorer since the turn of the century.

The Arsenal stalwart was aged 36 years, seven months and eight days when he scored against Sparta Prague in the UEFA Champions League.

Dixon's goal was part of a 4-2 victory for the Gunners way back in October 2000.

Another former Arsenal defender is second on the list, with Sol Campbell scoring for the club at the age of 35 in a 2-1 defeat at FC Porto in February 2010.

Chelsea legend Frank Lampard netted his final UEFA Champions League goal for the Blues at Romanian side FCSB in 2013, while Paul Scholes was also 35 when he scored in a 3-2 win for Manchester United away at AC Milan in 2010.

Alongside Dixon and Campbell, there are incredibly three other defenders on the list of the oldest English scorers in the UEFA Champions League.

Martin Keown scored for Arsenal against Shakhtar in 2000, while John Terry and Dan Burn were both 33 when scoring their last goals in the competition.
