Excitement Around Record-setting Bayern Youngster Lennart Karl Is At A New Peak
UEFA Champions League: Bayern Munich teenager Lennart Karl drew a standing ovation in the 76th minute on Tuesday night after scoring in a 3-1 UEFA Champions League win over Sporting, becoming the youngest player to score in three consecutive games and prompting talk of a possible 2026 FIFA World Cup call-up.
The 17-year-old struck Bayern's second in the 69th minute and, at 17 years and 290 days, eclipsed Kylian Mbappe's mark of scoring three times at 18 years and 113 days, earning the Man of the Match award with a shy smile as he left the pitch.
Back in his hometown of Frammersbach, a town of 5,000 about 80 kilometres east of Frankfurt, excitement has surged. On the field, the youngster debuted a new celebration that appeared to signal for the hype to cool down, reports Xinhua.
