Erling Haaland has made history as he became the fastest player to reach 50 Champions League goals, achieving the feat in just 49 games during Manchester City’s 2-0 victory over Napoli at the Etihad Stadium.
The Norwegian striker surpassed Ruud van Nistelrooy’s previous record of 62 matches, opening the scoring with a powerful header in the 56th minute. Haaland connected with a delicate lofted pass from Phil Foden, nodding the ball into the corner to put Pep Guardiola’s side ahead.
