With the goal against Bournemouth, striker Erling Haaland officially entered the history of Manchester City club.
Early this morning (February 26), within the framework of round 25 of the English Premier League, Manchester City had a trip to Bournemouth’s field. Coach Pep Guardiola’s teachers and students showed superior strength compared to their opponents when actively playing offensively and controlling the game from the very beginning. Within 45 minutes of the first half, Man City took a 3-0 lead thanks to goals from Julian Alvarez, Haaland and Phil Foden.
In the second half, Man City played leisurely and had another goal from Alvarez. On the side of Bournemouth, the home team played extremely hard and had an honorable goal, thereby closing the match with a 4-1 victory in favor of Manchester City.
These three points of Man City have the mark of Haaland, when he scored to make it 2-0 for ‘The Citizens’. With this goal, the Norwegian striker has reached 27 goals in the English Premier League. This achievement helps Haaland go down in club history when becoming the highest scorer for Man City in a Premier League season, surpassing the old record of Sergio Aguero with 26 goals.
In all competitions, Erling Haaland also has a terrible goal performance with 33 goals in 33 appearances. The 22-year-old striker can completely improve his performance when the season is still relatively long ahead.
Since joining Manchester City from Dortmund in the summer of 2022, Haaland has integrated extremely quickly and soon became an irreplaceable mainstay of the ‘Blue Half of Manchester’. If you keep up the current form, the title of Premier League’s top scorer is almost impossible to leave the arms of this star.
Destruction of Bournemouth, Man City is still second with 55 points after 25 matches. Coach Pep Guardiola’s teachers and students are still 2 points behind the top team Arsenal, but they played more than one match.
