Haaland, who previously netted a hat-trick against Wolves, surpassed expectations with a quartet of goals, propelling City’s relentless attack.
From an early penalty conversion to a series of precise headers and finishes, Haaland’s performance was a display of clinical precision. Despite a brief response from Wolves courtesy of Hwang Hee-chan, City’s lead remained unassailable.
