Haaland shines on Ronaldo’s day of misery

On a night when Cristiano Ronaldo's hopes of winning a sixth UEFA Champions League title were dashed, Borussia Dortmund's Erling Haaland enhanced his wrecking-ball reputation with yet another goal-scoring masterclass.

While Haaland's double helped Dortmund secure a 2-2 draw against Sevilla in their second-leg match that sent them into the quarter-finals 5-4 on aggregate, Ronaldo's Juventus crashed out of the Champions League in the last 16 for the second year running on Tuesday, losing to 10-man Porto on away goals despite winning the second leg 3-2 in Turin.

Haaland became the fastest player to reach 20 goals in the Champions League, as well as the youngest, after scoring twice against Sevilla in the last 16.

He was also more than a year younger than Paris St Germain's Kylian Mbappe when he reached that mark just short of his 22nd birthday. He is also the top-scorer in the Champions League this season with 10 goals in just six games.

"It was a hard game -- I'm tired now, but to be in the next round feels very big," Haaland said. "It was a crazy game and a crazy win."

"We knew that they were going to come at us very hard, but when we scored they needed three -- to be 1-0 up at halftime was very good and it was a nice goal."

Haaland's first goal was a tap-in from a Marco Reus cutback but his second was a retaken penalty after his first effort was saved.

The penalty was controversially awarded after a lengthy VAR review involving a foul on Haaland minutes earlier.

While it was a night to boast records for Haaland, who, according to Sevilla coach Julen Lopetegui "will dominate an era", Ronaldo drew a blank, needing Juve coach Andrea Pirlo's support after an average performance. 

Aside from his assist for Federico Chiesa's first goal, Ronaldo was largely subdued against Porto, but Pirlo defended the five-time Champions League winner.

"When Ronaldo plays in Champions League usually is like your team begin the game one goal ahead of your opponent. But it can happen even to an extraordinary player like him not to be able to score," Pirlo said.

Their failure to reach the quarter finals was remarkably similar to last season's away goals exit to Olympique Lyonnais, with manager Maurizio Sarri sacked at the end of the campaign despite winning a ninth-straight Serie A title for Juve.
