In 36 appearances this season, the Norwegian striker has tallied 39 goals, taking his Manchester City to the champions’ League semifinal. His second effort was a landmark strike, with Haaland now having scored 31 goals in the Champions League.

Having reached the 30-goal milestone after just 25 games, the 22-year-old becomes the youngest player to reach that tally. Not only that, but Haaland is also the fastest player ever to reach 30 goals in Europe’s biggest competition – quicker than Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Kylian Mbappe.

He has also become the most prolific scorer in a single season for City, beating the previous record of 38 in all competitions set by Tommy Johnson in 1928-29. After netting a hat-trick inside the first half against Leipzig, Haaland wasn’t done there as he netted twice more inside the opening 15 minutes of the second half. Haaland was substituted in the 62nd minute, much to the relief of everyone associated with Leipzig.

Haaland’s efforts mean that the striker now has ten goals against Leipzig, more than any other player in world football has managed. At 22 years old, Haaland has become the youngest player to reach 30 champions league goals.

His five goals also brought up a fifth hat-trick of his debut season in England. Haaland had begun the night level with Ryan Giggs and Edin Dzeko on 28 in the Champions League scoring charts, His haul moves him from 28th in the standings past David Trezeguet, Patrick Kluivert, Roy Makaay, Kaka, Wayne Rooney, Antoine Griezmann, Samuel Eto’o, and Arjen Robben, into 19th place – level with Fernando Morientes.
Asked about Guardiola's decision to substitute him with half an hour remaining, Haaland added: "I told him, I would love to score a double hat-trick but what can we do?!"
