Despite breaking the scoring record at Man City, striker Erling Haaland has not been able to catch up with the achievements of striker Marcus Rashford on MU’s side since the 2022 World Cup.
In the trip to Dean Court in round 25 of the Premier League, Man City dominated and easily defeated Bournemouth with a score of 4-1 thanks to goals from Julian Alvarez (15′), Erling Haaland (29′). , Phil Foden (45′) and Chris Mepham’s own goal (51′). Across the front line, Jefferson Lerma (83′) is the author of the honor table for the home team.
Despite winning this match, Man City is still second in the Premier League table with 55 points after 25 matches, 2 points behind Arsenal but played 1 more game.
The goal to double the gap against Bournemouth was Haaland’s 27th goal in 24 Premier League appearances this season. Thanks to that, the Norwegian striker surpassed Sergio Aguero (26 goals, 2014/15 season) to become the player to score the most goals for Man City in a season in the English Premier League.
With Man City still having 13 matches in the 2022/23 Premier League, Haaland still has many opportunities to break his own record. Since landing at Etihad in the summer of 2022, the 22-year-old star has had 33 goals and 4 assists in 33 appearances on all fronts.
Currently, Haaland is leading the list of Premier League top scorers, 10 goals ahead of Tottenham’s Harry Kane.
Despite being in extremely impressive form, since the 2022 World Cup until now, Haaland has only contributed directly to 10 goals in the Premier League. This achievement is still less than 1 time compared to Marcus Rashford of MU.
In the last match, midfielder Phil Foden created 7 chances to score towards the Bournemouth goal. This is the best performance by a Man City player away from home in the Premier League since James Milner (against Aston Villa in October 2014, 8 chances).
