This sure is one way to help your team move on to the quarterfinals of the Champions League. With Man City and RB Leipzig even at 1-1 entering their second leg battle at the Etihad Stadium, you had a feeling Erling Haaland would rise up and deliver for his team.

Well, Haaland did that and much more, as he scored five (five!) goals in the 7-0 MCFC win on Tuesday. This showing from the young striker was out of this world.

It indeed was a historic showing from Haaland. He has solidified himself as one of the best players on the planet, as this kid is the real deal.
