Haaland is already monstrous!

Manchester City did not miss their ball opening this Friday evening. Neither does Erling Haaland.

The champ has spoken. Opposed to Burnley, promoted coached by a certain Vincent Kompany, Manchester City did not fail this Friday as a curtain raiser for the new Premier League season. Solid and diligent, the defending champions began their championship with a victory on hostile ground. Mastered. On the score of 0-3.

Clearly dominating, the Skyblues were able to make the difference from the first act, by the essential Erling Haaland. Surgical in the area and still well placed, the Norwegian slipped two mines into the opposing nets, well served by Rodri from the fourth minute, then assisted by Julian Alvarez half an hour later (36e). Rodri having finally closed the mark at the start of the final quarter of an hour (76e).

A year ago already, the one we nicknamed the cyborg had started his season with a double in the Premier League on the lawn of West Ham. In his standards, Erling Haaland can therefore aim – or even exceed the 36 goals scored in the league last season – for 52 achievements in 52 matches in all competitions.
