Erling Braut Haaland with Champions League record for new goal –...

(Borussia Dortmund – Zenit St. Petersburg 2-0) Erling Braut Haaland (20) missed the first chance, but scored on the second. No one has scored as many goals in their first ten matches of the tournament.

Haaland characteristically doubled the lead in overtime in the second half. The Norwegian stormed through after a header from Jude Bellingham and put the ball between the legs of Mikhail Kerzhakov.

Thus, the 20-year-old stands with a staggering 12 goals in ten games in the Champions League. It is a feat no one has managed before.

He has also scored in seven of eight games in the group stage so far in his career.

– It feels very good, there is not much to say. It was an important goal for me and the team, says Haaland.

Erling Braut Haaland crushes both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Argentine needed 25 games to reach twelve goals, while Cristiano Ronaldo had to wait 47 games before he had the same number of goals in the Champions League.

Sancho penalty and Haaland miss

Before scoring, Jadon Sancho had already sent Borussia Dortmund into the lead on a penalty kick.

The Englishman got the opportunity when Thorgan Hazard was torn down in the penalty area.

Sancho sent goalkeeper Mikhail Kerzhakov one way and put the ball opposite.

Until then, Borussia Dortmund had struggled to create chances against a low and compact Zenit St. Petersburg, but initially Erling Braut Haaland was played free.

The Norwegian received a beautiful pass from Jadon Sancho, but the man who has been the safety even alone with the goalkeeper, failed to fulfill this time.

Haaland went for a hard shot along the grass, but the ball slipped outside the longest post.

However, Sancho’s penalty was enough to secure three important points, after a loss to Lazio in the first round.

It was also a dream night after Club Brugge and Lazio only got one point each from the meeting in Belgium.

Joaquin Correa sent Lazio in the lead before the quarter was played.

The Italians were able to secure the grip on the group with six points in two games, but Hans Vanaken’s equalizer ensured that one point disappeared into the smoke.

Now a double settlement against Club Brugge awaits for Erling Braut Haaland & co.

Tokmac targets

Haaland was not the only Norwegian to score on Wednesday night.

Tokmac Nguen scored the first goal as Ferencváros fought back from 0-2 to 2-2 at home against Dynamo Kiev.

The 27-year-old received the ball within the penalty area, turned on the five-pointer and sent off a well-placed shot via the post and in. His first goal in the Champions League.

– It was a nice pass and saw a small quick finish in the longest, Nguen says to TV 2 – directly from the locker room in Budapest.

Former Stabæk player Franck Boli scored the goal that secured one point for the Hungarians.

Alexander Sørloth started on the bench, but came in for RB Leipzig. It ended with an ugly 0-5 loss against Ole Gunnar Solskjær & co. at Old Trafford.

Fredrik Gulbrandsen put the whole match on the bench for Istanbul Basaksehir in the 0-2 loss against PSG in the same group.
