Erling Haaland, fastest player to reach 35 Champions League goals

Another record that Erling Haaland can write in the history books.

With the goal against Bayern Munich, Haaland became the player to use the fewest matches to score 35 goals in the Champions League. He is also the youngest player to take that record.

Fewest games to reach 35 goals in Champions League: 

27 Games - Erling Haaland 
44 Games - Ruud Van Nistelrooy
54 Games - Kylian Mbappe
56 Games - Lionel Messi
56 Games - Robert Lewandowski

Haaland has previously taken the record for the fewest games to reach 20 goals and 30 goals in the Champions League, and that is with quite a few fewer games than his competitors, which makes it even more impressive.

Fewest games to reach 20 goals in Champions League:

14 Games – Erling Haaland
24 Games - Harry Kane
26 Games – Alessandro Del Piero 
27 Games – Ruud van Nistelrooy
28 Games – Filippo Inzaghi 

Fewest games to reach 30 goals in Champions League: 

25 Games – Erling Haaland
34 Games – Ruud van Nistelrooy
36 Games – Robert Lewandowski
48 Games – Lionel Messi
49 Games – Neymar 

The next record for Haaland is to reach 40 goals in the fewest games and it seems almost impossible not to beat this record for the goal-dangerous Norwegian.

Fewest games to reach 40 goals in Champions League: 

45 Games – Ruud van Nistelrooy
59 Games – Kylian Mbappe
61 Games – Lionel Messi
