Man City hero Erling Haaland breaks goals record held by Manchester United and Liverpool stars

Erling Haaland has become the first Premier League player to score 45 goals in a single season across all competitions.

The striker found the net in the second half of Tuesday’s 3-0 Champions League quarter-final first-leg win over Bayern Munich to set yet another record. Haaland has netted 11 goals in just seven Champions League games this season after firing five past RB Leipzig in the last round.

He is now in pole position to become the top scorer in this season’s competition and also leads the race for the Premier League golden boot. The Norway sensation is on 30 league goals and just needs five more to claim the single-season league record.
