Wonderkid Ansu Fati Makes More UEFA Champions League History

Wonderkid Ansu Fati Makes More UEFA Champions League History

Following his goal in FC Barcelona's 5-1 win over Ferencvarosi on Tuesday night, African-born wonderkid Ansu Fati has set a new UEFA Champions League record.

The Guinea-Bissau-born winger has begun this season like a house on fire, having now scored four goals in five matches, and assisted a further two strikes across all platforms.

His strike in the Blaugrana's comfortable win over Ferencvarosi on Tuesday ensured that the Spain international has become the first player in Champions League history to score twice in the competition before his 18th birthday.

Fati will turn 18 years old on 31 October, and is considered by many to be one of the best young talents in world football.
