Erling Haaland has expressed his pride after netting five goals in our 7-0 (8-1 agg) UEFA Champions League last-16 victory over RB Leipzig.

The striker became just the third player in the history of the competition to find the net five times in a single game.

Super strikes from Ilkay Gundogan and Kevin de Bruyne added to the scoreline under the floodlights at the Etihad Stadium.

Haaland, who now has 33 goals in 25 Champions League games, reaching the 30-goal milestone in fewer matches than any other player in the competition’s history, was ecstatic after the win, which sees us progress into the last eight.

“It was fantastic!

“7-0 at home, to score five goals, I’m really proud and happy,” he said.

“Every game in the Champions League now will be difficult. So we have to perform at our best every single game.

“I don’t have to say too much because we won 7-0 and I scored five goals! I don’t have to say too much.

“I’m really proud and really happy, yeah.”
