Erling Haaland produced one of the most spectacular displays in the UEFA Champions League history as he scored five goals in Manchester City's 7-0 demolition of RB Leipzig in the second leg of the Round of 16 on Tuesday night.With his five goals, Haaland not only secured the reigning English champions' place in the quarterfinals of Europe's premier club competition but also broke a slew of records at the Etihad Stadium.Among the numerous feats the 22-year-old accomplished at City's home ground was becoming just the third player ever to net five goals in a Champions League encounter.Lionel Messi was the first player to deliver five goals in a match in the prestigious event, doing so against Bayer Leverkusen in 2012.The other footballer to manage five goals in a Champions League tie was the Brazilian Luiz Adriano who reached the milestone as a Shakhtar Donetsk player against BATE Borisov in 2014.Besides matching Messi's enormous landmark, Haaland went past Kylian Mbappe to become the youngest player to touch the 30-goal mark in the Champions League. He's also the quickest to accomplish the feat.En route to his quintet of goals against Leipzig, the former Borussia Dortmund attacker took his tally to 39 goals for City during the 2022-23 season.This made him the first City player to score as many goals during a single campaign in 94 years.The previous record for the Citizens was held by Clark Fisher Johnson who registered 38 goals during the 1928-29 season.Speaking about statistics, out of the 39 goals the Norway international has scored in City's current campaign, 28 of them have come in the Premier League, while the Champions League accounts for 10 and a solitary goal was scored in the EFL Cup.
