All of Erling Haaland's Champions League goals

Click here for more UEFA Champions League stats & facts!

Erling Haaland reached 50 Champions League goals faster than any other player in football history, and now sits on 52 overall.

Since bursting onto the European stage as a teenager with Salzburg, Haaland has made a name for himself as one of the most destructive forwards in the continent and his goalscoring record in the Champions League only serves to prove this.

The Norwegian had already accumulated 15 goals in just 13 games for Borussia Dortmund and eight goals across six group stage fixtures at Salzburg prior to that before joining Man City, where he has continued to find the net with regularity.

But how has Haaland been so potent in the Champions League and what have been the keys to his success in front of goal? In this breakdown, we run through all the key numbers.

Last updated after Matchday 2 of the 2025-26 season

BY SEASON

Haaland has reached double figures for Champions League goals in three separate campaigns.
His most successful season from a goalscoring point of view came in 2022/23, when he finished top-scorer in the competition with 12 goals as Man City went on to win the Champions League for the first time in their history.

BY ROUND

Haaland has accumulated 36 (69.2%) of his 52 goals across the group stage/league phase.
Only two of Haaland's goals have come after the round of 16.

BY PITCH AREA

Unsurprisingly, a significant portion (69.2%) of the Norwegian's goals have come from inside the penalty area.
However, this does not include anything scored by Haaland from inside the six-yard-box, of which there are a further 14 goals.

METHOD OF GOALS

Haaland’s favoured left foot has accounted for 36 (69.2%) of his 52 Champions League goals.
He has registered six headed goals so far in the tournament.

TYPE OF GOALS

84.6% of Haaland’s goals have come from open play, whilst eight have been via the penalty spot.
Haaland is yet to score a free kick in the Champions League.

BY HALF

Haaland’s attacking threat seems to pick up in the second half of games, having scored four extra goals in the second period of matches compared to the first.
The Norwegian is yet to score a Champions League goal in extra-time.

BY MINUTE

The data suggests that Haaland needs time to get his eye in, having scored only four goals inside the first 15 minutes of a Champions League fixture, the lowest across any period of normal time.
However, as Haaland grows into a game, his goal threat increases. Indeed, his most prolific period is the 15 minutes directly after half-time with 13 goals (25%) scored in that segment.

NATIONS SCORED AGAINST

The highest percentage (17.3%) of Haaland's goals in the Champions League have come against German opposition, perhaps no surprise when considering that he played in Germany for two and a half seasons - plenty of time to acquaint himself with their respective backlines.
Although Haaland boasts goals against clubs from 13 different nations, he is still yet to score against Portuguese opposition.

TEAMS SCORED AGAINST

Haaland has scored against both RB Leipzig and Sevilla six times in the Champions League - more than any other club as it stands
Of his six goals against Leipzig, five of them came in one match; the second leg of a round of 16 tie in 2022-23 that Man City won 7-0 (8-1 on aggregate).

GOALKEEPERS SCORED AGAINST

Janis Blaswich was in goal for Leipzig in that round of 16 second leg which saw the Man City star score five goals.
Currently, 21 goalkeepers have conceded at least one goal to Haaland in the Champions League.

TOP ASSISTERS

No player has managed to assist Haaland more than three times, but it will be no surprise to most that former Man City teammate Kevin De Bruyne and current teammate Phil Foden are the two men to have assisted the Norwegian on three occasions.
Over 20% of Haaland’s goals were not registered as assisted.
