in the competition after ending his drought in Man City&#8217;s 3-1 win over Young Boys<\/h1>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Haaland made a habit of breaking records during his blistering 2022-23 term\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>But the player has gone through somewhat of a goal drought in the UCL\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Follow Mail Sport&#8217;s new Champions League WhatsApp channel for all the breaking news\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Erling Haaland has become the youngest Champions League goalscorer to reach 27 goals, breaking the record set by Kylian Mbappe.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Manchester City striker has been experiencing somewhat of a scoring drought after helping secure Pep Guardiola&#8217;s side their historic treble at the end of last season.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But the Norway international was inch-perfect from the spot to net his first goal in five Champions League matches against Young Boys on Wednesday evening.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Man City won the clash in Switzerland 3-1, with Haaland&#8217;s second goal ensuring the visitors held onto their spot atop Group G &#8211; as well as engraving his name in the history books yet again.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At just 23 years and 96 days old, Haaland swiped the honour from the Paris Saint-Germain starlet, who completed his haul at the age of 23 years and 295 days.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img

in Europe&#8217;s storied contest.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Last season, the striker became the youngest player to reach 30 Champions League goals &#8211; again pipping Mbappe to the post &#8211; as well as being the fastest to the number.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It took Haaland just 25 appearances in the tournament to tally up the haul, with his record-breaker coming as part of a 7-0 drubbing of RB Leipzig at the Etihad in March.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>During his white-hot night in sky blue, Haaland also became the third player in Champions League history to score five times in a single tie.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img

striker Luiz Adriano.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the same vein, Haaland also holds the record as the fastest player to have reached 20 Champions League goals &#8211; and in 14 matches, in the fewest number appearances.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the 2022-23 campaign, an eye-opening 12 of Haaland&#8217;s 52 goals came in a competition that he has previously described as his favourite.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This season, Haaland has started more modestly, scoring his first two on Wednesday, and registering a solitary assist against Red Star Belgrade.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S
