Haaland sets another record, "leaves the license plate" for other
Erling Haaland is back to scoring in the Champions League and of course every time he hits the net, another record is set in this tournament where he now finds himself among the top goalscorers, despite being just 23 years old.

The goal scored today against Coppenhagen was the 41st in his career in the Champions League. Of course, this led to him setting the record for the youngest age at which this figure has been achieved, as well as becoming the player who has had the fewest games for him.

Haaland needed just 37 games to score 41 goals, breaking the record previously held by Van Nistelrooy, who needed 45. The Dutchman is the only one who can get any closer to the Norwegian striker, as the rest of the Champions League bombers are very detached.

It took Messi 61 games to reach this figure, Mbappe 62, just like Lewandowski, while Neymar is next with 65 games played to reach the quota of 41 goals.
