Incredible Haaland! Norwegian forward scored four times against Wolves and Palmer is now five goals behind him

Erling Haaland showed once again that he is one of the best forwards in the world. The Manchester City forward scored four times against Wolves and Cole Palmer will have to work hard if he wants to compete with him in the battle for the king of goalscorers.

Erling Haaland has not been in ideal form. He hasn’t been scoring many goals and Chelsea talent Cole Palmer, who used to be his teammate, is slowly catching up with him in the goalscoring table. After all, the Norwegian striker missed two games due to injury.

But against Nottingham he returned, was the best player on the set and also helped with a goal to win the game. Against Wolves, he needed a shot to be fit for the end of the league season, and he did just that.

The 23-year-old striker scored the first goal of the game in the 12th minute when he was given the opportunity to take a penalty kick. Haaland waited for the goalkeeper to move and did not give him a chance to intervene.

City continued to press but Haaland failed to place his header accurately in the 18th minute. But in the 36th minute, he and his teammates were able to celebrate again.

This time, Haaland’s header was right on target and José Sá could only look back to see where the ball was going. Unfortunately for him, it went into the net and no one doubted the Citizens’ victory.

And at the end of the half it was even better, as Haaland was again given a penalty kick opportunity and took it, thus completing his hat-trick during the first half.

In the 53rd minute, Hee-Chan Hwang was able to equalize at 1:3, but right after the kick-off, the Manchester team counterattacked and a good centre from Phil Foden was converted by Haaland.

He scored his 4th goal of the match and Manchester City led 4:1 in the 60th minute. Haaland’s fourth goal took him to 25 goals for the season and Palmer is 5 behind him.
