The Manchester City striker was once again a sensation in the English league.
The impressive stat with which Haaland crushes Ronaldo, Mbappe and Lionel Messi
Erling Haaland was fundamental in Manchester City’s 3-1 victory against Leicester, managing to position Pep Guardiola’s team in second place, just 3 units behind Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal, undoubtedly being a victory that can contribute a lot to what that comes with a view to the future for citizens.
In this sense, Erling Haaland was key, scoring two goals in his personal account for the citizens in just 25 minutes of play and John Stones also contributing his own, a central defender who was highly criticized last season and on this day he has managed to establish himself as a fundamental pillar of this defense of Pep Guardiola.
Manchester City managed to be superior to Leicester throughout the match, although they suffered some scares in the final stage of the match with several approaches, but beyond that, the victory of Pep Guardiola’s men who dominated the actions of the match was never in doubt in most of the 90 minutes played.
Of course, Erling Haaland was the main attraction of the match, making a difference and not only that, but having a great record on a personal level that put him at the level of greats in the Premier League, demonstrating something that neither Lionel Messi nor Cristiano Ronaldo have been able to, making it clear that he has great scoring power at 22 years of age.
Haaland and his record
Erling Haaland now has 32 goals, equaling Mohamed Salah’s record with 32 goals in a 38-game Premier League season (2017-18); only Andrew Cole in 1993-94 (34) and Alan Shearer in 1994-95 (34) have scored more goals in any season overall since the Premier League’s new format in 1992. Without a doubt, the Norwegian forward proves to be up to the task. height not only of modern times but of all history.
