Since the arrival of Norwegian Erling Haaland (23 years old) to England in the “summer of 2022”, he continues to shine and score goals in various competitions in which his team, Manchester City, participates.
The “Golden Boy” succeeded in scoring 4 “super hat-trick” goals, against Wolverhampton, in the “36th round” of the English Premier League, including two goals from two penalty kicks, one with his head and another with a powerful shot from his foot, which is the first time that Haaland has scored. “Super hat-trick” in the league, since coming to England.
Haaland raised his score to 36 goals this season, including 25 goals in the English Premier League, with which he topped the list of top scorers in the tournament, 5 goals ahead of his closest rivals, Newcastle striker Alexander Isak and Chelsea midfielder Cole Palmer, each of whom has 20 goals.
Last season, Haaland achieved a record for the number of goals scored by a player during a season, as he scored 52 goals in 53 matches, while assisting 9 other goals, for a total of 61 goalscoring contributions.
Had Haaland not been injured more than once this season, he would have been able to get very close to last season’s number, as he only played 28 games this season.
City raised its score to 82 points, one point ahead of Arsenal, the leaders so far, even though “The Blue Moon” has a match remaining.
Haaland became the first player in the history of the English Premier League to score 25 or more goals in his first two seasons in the competition.
The “Golden Boy” returned to the race for the European Golden Shoe, which is awarded to the scorer with the highest number of goals in European leagues, during an entire calendar year and not a season, as the Englishman Harry Kane, the Bayern Munich striker, currently tops the list with 27 goals scored in the “Bundesliga”, followed by Argentine Lautaro Martinez, Inter Milan striker, has 23 goals, then Frenchman Kylian Mbappe, Paris Saint-Germain winger, has 21 goals, while Haaland comes in fifth with 18 goals, and ahead of him in fourth place is Serho Geraci, German Stuttgart player, with 20 goals.
