What a demonstration! Faced off in the first leg, Manchester City thrashed RB Leipzig 7-0 on Tuesday in the Champions League play-offs. The British could count on the unstoppable Erling Haaland for great success. The Norwegian scored five goals in… 35 minutes.
Transforming a generous penalty for a debutant (22′), what many call a “cyborg” rushed to press the opponent’s kick-off. Thus, he returned the ball, and then, after Kevin De Bruyne hit the crossbar, he headed the ball into an empty net (24 minutes). The car was started. Shortly before the break, he again demonstrated his opportunism and scored a hat-trick (45’+2) after a parried header from Rodri. The 22-year-old added two new milestones to his tally by intercepting balls that were poorly deflected by the defense or the opposing goalkeeper (53 and 57 feet).
Better than Robben, Rooney or Kaka
This is the third five in the history of the tournament after Luis Adriano (Shakhtar Donetsk against BATE Borisov in 2014) and Lionel Messi (for Barcelona against Bayer Leverkusen). The insatiable striker came out at the hour mark when the sextuplet would have been unprecedented in C1. “I told Pep (Guardiola, editor’s note) leaving that, I would like to do a double hat-trick (one in the first period and one in the second), but what do you want?he joked after the final whistle. “If he gets there at 22, his life will be boring. Now he can do it in the future”the Spanish technician replied with humor.

On that memorable night, Erling Haaland, at 22 years and 236 days old, became the youngest player in history to reach the symbolic 30 goals (in this case 33) and 25 Champions League appearances. What’s more, he has already surpassed the total number of achievements recorded by the likes of Arjen Robben (31), Wayne Rooney (30), Samuel Eto’o (30) or Kaka (30). “My supertalent is scoring goals”– the Scandinavian center forward smiles. It’s the least we can say.
