Erling Haaland once again confirmed that he doesn’t care what competition he plays. On Wednesday night he scored goals and helped Manchester City to another three points in the Champions League. This time he officiated against Copenhagen and outplayed the legends.
After his hat-trick in the Manchester United net, Erling Haaland also featured in the match against Copenhagen on Wednesday night. He switched from a mode designed to destroy teams in the Premier League to one that similarly destroys teams in the Champions League.
Pep Guardiola only left him on the pitch for one half, but even that was enough for the Norwegian sharpshooter to score two goals. He scored for the first time in the 7th minute of the match. It was his first contact with the ball, sending it into the net.
Haaland scored another goal in the 32nd minute. He made it 2-0 to the English side and Guardiola was able to wash his hands again. He could hardly have dreamed of a better goalscorer.
Haaland is the top scorer in this year’s Champions League. After three games, he has five goals. In total, he has 28 goals in the Champions League, just 22 games to go. An incredible record.
To make matters worse, at 22 years old, the Norwegian striker already has more goals than various legends of world football. With two goals against Copenhagen, he surpassed the likes of Rivaldo and Luis Suárez.
