Haaland sets a record that Ronaldo did not achieve in the Champions League

(Dan Tri) - Erling Haaland has become the first player in UEFA Champions League history to score in 5 consecutive matches for 3 different teams.

Erling Haaland is in devastating form for Man City as well as the Norwegian national team in the 2025-26 season. The striker born in 2000 only needed 29 minutes to score against his former team Borussia Dortmund at the Etihad Stadium to help Man City win 4-1 in the fourth round of the UEFA Champions League which took place early this morning (November 6, Vietnam time).

Haaland's goal was the striker's 18th in all competitions for The Citizens this season. Of the 14 games he has played, he has only failed to score in two (losses to Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa).

He has also scored nine goals in his last three games for Norway, leading the race to secure a first World Cup berth for the country since 1998.

Notably, the goal against Borussia Dortmund helped Erling Haaland set an unprecedented historic milestone in the Champions League that even Cristiano Ronaldo could not do when he played for Man Utd, Real Madrid and Juventus.

Haaland's goal against Dortmund was the fifth consecutive match he has scored in Europe's top tournament, from Real Madrid (last season), to Napoli, Monaco, Villarreal and now Dortmund this season.

Haaland's first five-game scoring streak came with Red Bull Salzburg, with eight goals scored between September and November 2019. The 2020-21 season saw Haaland score 10 goals in six consecutive games for Dortmund.

Erling Haaland's brilliant form will help Man City hope to win against Liverpool in round 11 of the Premier League this weekend. The Norwegian striker has scored 13 goals in the English top flight this season, just 9 goals less than his achievement last season.

The Man City star has done it in just 10 appearances compared to 31 last season and is on course to break the Premier League record of 36 goals in 35 appearances in his first season at Man City.

Haaland is just two goals short of reaching the 100-goal mark and five short of equalling Cristiano Ronaldo's Premier League scoring record.
