The previous best for combined club and country was an 11-game run by Cristiano Ronaldo in 2013\u201314. Ronaldo opened that sequence with two goals against Atl\u00e9tico Madrid and followed with 13 goals across the next 10 appearances to register his longest scoring streak. He did not score in the first leg of that season\u2019s Champions League semifinal, a 1\u20130 home win over Bayern Munich, but returned to score five times in the three appearances that followed, including two in the return fixture in Germany.<\/p>\n

Haaland already sits ahead of Lionel Messi in this specific measure; Messi\u2019s runs ended at 10 in 2010\u201311 and 2012\u201313. Messi does hold a separate record of 21 straight La Liga appearances with a goal, but international results prevented a similar combined streak.<\/p>\n
Attention now turns to the Premier League mark for consecutive appearances with at least one goal. Jamie Vardy holds that record at 11. Haaland is currently on six and has a best top-flight run of seven games, which he will match if he scores next against Aston Villa. To surpass Vardy he would also need goals in subsequent matches against Bournemouth, Liverpool, Newcastle United, Leeds United and Fulham.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
