After four matches without scoring at club level, Erling Haaland found the net again this Saturday.
Erling Haaland is returning to his good habits. Discreet during the international break, the Norwegian giant woke up this Saturday during Manchester City’s match against Brighton in the Premier League.
Haaland moves forward
While we were playing the 19e minute of play and the score was already 1-0 in favor of the Sky Blues, the Sky Blues cyborg hit the target with a low shot from the left from outside the area. The ball went deep and that allowed him to score his 9e carrying out the exercise.
🚨🚨| GOAL: Haaland has scored for City!

The former Salzburg player can be relieved as he had not scored for club for exactly a month (September 23) and the opposition in the league against Nottingham Forest. He had even hit seven times on goal without being able to shake the net. A period of scarcity that was unlike him.
With his achievement of the day, Haaland consolidates his position as leader in the PL scorers rankings. He has 9 pawns on his counter. Two more than his first pursuer Mohamed Salah, who had scored a double a few hours earlier against Everton (2-0).
