Ajax: Haller in LdC, it’s crazy!

Scorer against Benfica (2-2) this Wednesday, on the occasion of the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League, Ajax Amsterdam striker Sébastien Haller (27 years old, 7 games and 11 goals in LdC this season ) had a mixed night, also scoring against his side. But beyond this hitch, the Ivorian international has above all confirmed his magnificent debut in the greatest of European competitions.

As statistician Opta points out, the former Auxerrois became the first player to reach 11 goals in his first year in C1. Haller also became only the fifth player to fail in at least seven straight games in the event. Scary numbers.
