Manchester City striker, Erling Haaland, has become the fastest player in Champions League history to score 50 goals.

Haaland achieved the feat on Thursday night, after he opened the scoring in their 2-0 win over Napoli.

The Norway striker headed City in front at the Etihad to tally his half-century of goals in just 49 appearances.

He has now broken the previous record set by former Manchester United striker, Ruud van Nistelrooy, who needed 62 games.

It took Lionel Messi 66 games, although the Argentina captain remains the youngest player to hit 50.

Messi was 24 years and 284 days when he achieved the feat, with 25-year-old Haaland displacing Kylian Mbappé in second.
