English Premier League (EPL) Manchester City’s ‘monster striker’ Erling Haaland has tied the record for the fastest time to score 100 goals in a single match for a single club in Europe’s top five leagues.

On the 23rd (Korean time), in the 5th round home game of the 2024-2025 EPL season against Arsenal held at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester, England, Haaland scored with a left-footed shot after receiving a penetrating pass from Sabinho in the 9th minute of the first half.

With this goal, Haaland achieved his 100th career goal for Manchester City.

Haaland has scored 100 goals in 105 official matches for Manchester City. He has scored 73 goals in 71 EPL matches, 8 goals in 7 FA Cup matches, 1 goal in 2 League Cup matches, 18 goals in 21 European club competition matches and has not scored in 4 other matches.

73 goals with his left foot, 14 with his right foot, 12 with his head, and 1 goal that went in after hitting the body.

With this, Haaland has tied with Cristiano Ronaldo (Al-Nassr) for the fastest time to score 100 goals in a single match for a single club in Europe’s top five leagues.

On November 3, 2011, while playing for Real Madrid (Spain), Ronaldo scored two goals in the fourth match of Group D of the 2011-2012 UEFA Champions League (UCL) group stage against Olympique Lyonnais (France), reaching 100 goals in 105 official matches since joining Real Madrid.

13 years later, Haaland is now on par with Ronaldo.

Haaland has scored 10 goals in 5 EPL games this season, breaking the record for the fastest 10 goals in a single EPL game.

Previously, Mickey Quinn, who played for Coventry City in the 1992-1993 season, scored 10 goals in the opening six games, but Haaland broke the record after 32 years.

Haaland, 24, has scored 235 goals in 271 appearances in Europe so far.

This is far ahead of Ronaldo (117 goals in 313 games) and Lionel Messi (184 goals in 274 games) at the same age.

Meanwhile, despite Haaland’s opening goal, Manchester City drew 2-2 with Arsenal, who played with 10 men.
