Barely few months after he joined Manchester City from Bundesliga side Dortmund, Nowergian striker Erling Haaland has made history, becoming first English Premier league player to score a hat-trick in three successive home games.
Unlike other players, Haaland has perfectly adapted to the EPL game style and tempo, putting up brilliant performances that announces him as a contender for highest goal scorer award.
The Nowergian striker netted his first hat-trick for City against Crystal Palace, helping City to a 4-2 win. He netted his second hat-trick in City’s 6–0 win against Nottingham Forest.
Haaland wrote his name in EPL history with a superb performance against Manchester United on Sunday, scoring another hat-trick as City thrash rival Manchester United 6-3.
The Norwegian striker has now scored 17 goals in 10 games for City since he arrived the EPL side during the summer.
Celebrating Haaland after Sunday’s game, Premier League in a statement said “The first player in Premier League history to score a hat-trick in three successive home matches. Take a bow, Erling Haaland.”
