This was how Erling Haaland reacted to winning his first European Super Cup
Haaland and Manchester City
Manchester City finally managed to win the UEFA Super Cup after a difficult match against the Europa League champion. Pep Guardiola’s men, with important casualties such as Bernardo Silva and De Bruyne, had to tie this game and won through a penalty shootout. The young Englishman Cole Palmer was in charge of equalizing the game.
At 63′, the team led by Pep Guardiola equalized the game with a header from Palmer, who took advantage of a great cross from Rodri at the far post, which hit the British midfielder to trigger the cry of the English team’s fans. In the penalty shootout, it was precisely Gudelj from Sevilla FC, the player who missed his goal.
It should be remembered that this is the first Super Cup title in Manchester City’s history and therefore also Erling Haaland’s first title in this prestigious competition. The reality is that Android’s performance never ceases to amaze locals and strangers. At only 23 years old, and just over one since his arrival at Citizens, he has already scored 54 goals and four titles won in 56 official matches in the British squad.
What did Haaland do when he won the title?
The Norwegian did not hesitate to celebrate euphorically with his teammates, but also when he saw the Super Cup, he decided to play it after winning it. In the midst of the celebrations, Pep Guardiola kissed the footballer with the Cup in hand on the cheek. A sign of affection and respect between two great elements of Manchester City.
