Manchester City Sensation Julian Alvarez Shatters Lionel Messi's UEFA Champions League Record

Julian Alvarez became the youngest Argentine player to score in the UEFA Champions League by breaking Paris Saint-Germain's (PSG) Lionel Messi's record. Alvarez achieved the feat when he scored for Manchester City against Real Madrid with his first touch of the game after coming on as a substitute.

Pep Guardiola's team earned a spectacular 4-0 win at the Etihad in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals. Alvarez was 23 years, three months, and 17 days old when he found the back of the net.

Lionel Messi, meanwhile, became the youngest Argentine when he netted against Real Madrid in the first leg of the 2010-11 UEFA Champions League semi-finals at the Santiago Bernabeu. 

He was 23 years, 10 months, and three days old at the time he scored a brace for Barcelona in a 2-0 win.

Alvarez's Manchester City, meanwhile, completely dominated Real Madrid. Apart from the Argentine, Bernardo Silva scored a brace and Eder Militao scored an own goal at the Etihad. City will now face Inter Milan in the final of the competition at the Ataturk Stadium in Istanbul.
