ERLING HAALAND SCORE FIVE IN MANCHESTER CITY’S ASSAULT ON RB LEIPZIG IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE.

Norwegian Striker Erling Haaland rewrote the history books by scoring an unbelievable five times as Manchester City blowout Rb Leipzig 7-0 to reach the Champions League quarter-finals.

Haaland became the fastest and youngest player to reach 30 goals in Europe’s elite club competition and also the youngest player to score five times in a single Champions League game, joining Argentina great Lionel Messi and Brazil forward Luiz Adriano as the only players to do so.

The 22-year-old is now on 39 goals for the season in all competitions, the first City player to reach the figure in a single campaign, with his five hat-tricks three more than any other player in the big five leagues.

Ilkay Gundogan and Kevin De Bruyne grabbed the other goals.
