Luka Modric beat a record previously held by Ferenc Puskas as he starred in Real Madrid's 2-2 draw at Bayern Munich.
The Croatian came off the bench on Tuesday night in the 75th minute, replacing Jude Bellingham, who had had a muted night by his standards.
That made him the oldest player ever to feature for Real Madrid in the Champions League.
Puskas held the record since his final season of 1965/66, when he turned out aged 38 years and 229 days old.
Modric has now pinched the bragging rights by five days, turning out aged 38 years and 234 days.
