Erling Haaland has smashed yet another record, becoming the fastest player to reach 50 Champions League goals doing so in just 49 games. The 25-year-old Norwegian striker scored the opener in Manchester City’s 2-0 win over 10-man Napoli, heading in from Phil Foden’s pinpoint cross. Haaland surpasses the previous record held by Ruud van Nistelrooy, who reached the milestone in 62 matches. His remarkable consistency continues to stun teammates and fans alike, with Foden calling his feats “unheard of.” Pep Guardiola praised Haaland’s elite company, placing him alongside the likes of Messi and Ronaldo as one of football’s most prolific scorers.
