Haaland breaks another record in the Premier League and celebrates with City

Erling Braut Haaland, 26, celebrated Manchester City’s win over Sunderland by expressing his joy, according to journalists Dave Thompson and Sergio Escario. The Norwegian striker, the fastest player to reach 100 goals in the Premier League, added another milestone this Sunday in the 5-3 victory.

Goal of Maresca’s ‘hand’

The ‘cyborg’ completed Enzo Maresca’s ‘hand’ by receiving, unchallenged, a killer pass from Josko Gvardiol in the 84th minute, extending City’s lead.

At just 26, Haaland has already scored against the 25 different opponents he has faced in the Premier League, becoming the only one to do so. His favourite victim is the newly relegated West Ham United, against whom he has scored 11 times; followed by Wolves and Crystal Palace, whom he has beaten with 10 goals each.

Premier League probe threatens Manchester City’s future

The striker’s next challenge will be to score against Hull City, a team that has not been in the English top flight since 2017 and even played in League One in the 2020-21 season. The ‘tigers’ sit in eighth place after a surprising start.

Jordi Batalla reported a trip to Brazil to scout the left‑center‑back called up by Ancelotti, expanding the club’s scouting network.
