Who has scored the most goals in this season’s UEFA Champions League? Who has provided the most assists?
Erling Haaland moved ahead of Mohamed Salah at the top of this season’s UEFA Champions League scoring charts after hitting five against Leipzig to take his tally to ten.
The Norwegian forward struck five times in the group stage and, after drawing a blank against Leipzig in the round of 16 first leg, doubled his season’s tally by becoming only the third player to score five in a Champions League match in the second leg to propel Manchester City into the quarter-finals.
That took the 22-year-old two goals clear of Salah, whose Liverpool side were knocked out in the last 16, with the eliminated Kylian Mbappé on seven and Vinícius Júnior and João Mário among the chasing pack.
