Haaland Hits 40 In the Champions League as Man City Comeback to Beat Leipzig

Erling Haaland became the fastest player to score 40 Champions League goals as Manchester City came
from 2-0 down to beat RB Leipzig 3-2 on Tuesday.


The defending champions were on course for their first European defeat at the Etihad since 2018 when
Lois Openda took advantage of shambolic defending to score twice in the first half.
Haaland reduced City’s arrears before goals from Phil Foden and Julian Alvarez secured top spot in
Group G.


City have now won 27 of their last 29 Champions League home games since they last tasted defeat.
Leipzig have been regular victims during that run and were humbled 7-0 on their last trip to the Etihad in
March.
