MANCHESTER, England — Erling Haaland scored five goals in a record-setting performance to fire Manchester City into the Champions League quarterfinals. The Norway striker became the fastest player and youngest to reach 30 goals in the competition in City's 7-0 win over Leipzig. His record-equaling five goals in a Champions League match follows in the footsteps of Lionel Messi and Luiz Adriano. City advanced to the final eight with a 8-1 aggregate win after a 1-1 draw in the first leg of the round-of-16 matchup. Haaland says, "I'm blurry in my head. I remember shooting but not thinking."
