Champions LeagueHow to watch Sevilla v Manchester City in the Champions LeagueYESTERDAY AT 08:53 What's that, you're really going to waste time talking about how good Erling Haaland is, and shamelessly rope us in with a headline featuring Ronaldo's name too?
Puh! (That’s a scoffing type of noise). Rent free much? Well, yeah, cos Haaland is only 22 and has a Champions League goalscoring ratio that could eventually and absolutely obliterate a record held by one of the greatest of all time.
Ronaldo has 141 Champions League goals, has absolutely no chance of adding to that tally this side of Christmas, and while the legendary Portuguese had exactly zero in his first 20 Champions League games, Haaland now has 25 to his name after scoring twice in the 4-0 win over Sevilla.
