“It’s a big night,” Haaland told BT Sport.

“Firstly, I’m proud to play in this competition, I love it. Five goals! To win 7-0 is amazing.

“I was so tired after my celebrations. My super strength is scoring goals. Should I be honest? A lot of goals today, I didn’t think. I was just trying to get it into the back of the net. A lot of it is being quick in the mind and trying to put it where the goalkeeper is not.”
