Erling Haaland equalled Cristiano Ronaldo‘s record as the fastest man to score 100 goals for a European club, reaching his centenary for Manchester City in Sunday’s 2-2 Premier League draw with Arsenal.

The Norway international’s strike in the ninth minute at the Etihad Stadium, accelerating between Gabriel Magalhães and William Saliba before firing low past David Raya, put him at 100 goals in 105 appearances for City.

Arsenal held a lead late deep into second-half stoppage time, before John Stones scored an equaliser to salvage a point for the defending Premier League champions.

In 2011, Ronaldo scored his 100th goal for Real Madrid, also in his 105th match.

In 2024, Kevin De Bruyne became the 18th Manchester City player to reach 100 goals, achieving the accolade in his 372nd appearance for the club.

Haaland had already broken the record for most goals through four games of the Premier League season with nine, including two hat tricks.

That prolific start meant he went into Wednesday’s Champions League game at home to Inter Milan on 99 goals from 103 games and with a chance to break Ronaldo’s record.

But despite having a couple of first-half chances, the 24-year-old was left frustrated in a goalless draw.
