Haaland Equals Ronaldo's Record in Champions League Win for Manchester City

Erling Haaland matched Cristiano Ronaldo's career goal-scoring record by scoring in Manchester City's Champions League victory over Villarreal. Haaland has been in blistering form, scoring 24 goals in the 2025-26 campaign.

He has now scored in nine consecutive appearances for City, just one game shy of Ronaldo's record. Haaland's scoring streak began with a match against Brighton and includes breaking Wayne Rooney's Manchester derby record.

His performance against Arsenal further solidified his status as a lethal forward in world football.
