Peter Ofori-Quaye's goal in Olympiacos's 5-1 win a 1997-98 Champions League game against Rosenborg made the Ghanian forward the youngest-ever player to score in the competition.

It was a record Ofori-Quaye would hold on to for more than two decades before being relegated to second spot in the list of all-time youngest scorers in the Champions League.


#1 Ansu Fati (Barcelona): 10/12/19 - 17 years 40 days
