At the same time, the Norwegian was just a bit short of becoming the youngest footballer in history to reach the milestone of 50 goals in the Champions League.

He scored his 50th goal in the tournament at the age of 25 years and 59 days, making it the second-best record: the famous Argentine Lionel Messi was 24 years and 284 days old when he reached his first fifty goals in the Champions League.

Additionally, the current forward of Real Madrid, Kylian Mbappe, is third on the list of youngest players to score 50 goals in the Champions League at 25 years and 356 days.
