Erling Haaland equaled a Champions League record with five goals to send Manchester City into the quarter-finals with a 7-0 thrashing of the English champions and an 8-1 aggregate victory on Tuesday night< /p>

Haaland also set a new club record of scoring 39 goals in a season as Pep Guardiola's men reached the top eight for the sixth season in a row

City are yet to win the Champions League, but they have never had a striker of Haaland's quality make a difference in the closing stages before.

"My biggest strength is scoring goals, the technique is to be quick in my mind and try to put the ball where the goalkeeper is not," said Haaland

"I'm proud to play in this competition, I love it, Five goals! To win 7-0 is amazing!"
