United managed to lift the trophy and become champions, however, something that kept City fans expectant was the little participation that one of their team’s stars had, we are talking about none other than Erling Haaland.
Therefore, this invites us to review how the Norwegian has fared in the finals where he played with the light blue shirt.
The Norwegian played in a total of six finals wearing the Manchester City shirt, in one of them he was absent due to injury, while in the remaining five he was present but did not score a single goal, a drought that is surprising, above all, understanding that He is a born scorer.
Haaland was part of the citizens’ starting eleven in the following finals:
Community Shield 2022 against Liverpool
Community Shield 2023 against Arsenal
UEFA Champions League 2023 against Inter
European Super Cup 2023 against Sevilla
2023 Club World Cup against Fluminense was out due to injury
FA Cup 2023 against Manchester United
FA Cup 2024 against Manchester United
