Haaland continues formidable scoring run with opener against Villarreal
The Norwegian cannot stop scoring at the moment
Erling Haaland continued his barely believable scoring run this season as he bagged his 24th goal in all competitions for club and country this term.
Haaland netted in the 17th minute to give Manchester City the lead in their Champions League clash with Villarreal on Tuesday.
The Norwegian, who has now scored for the 12th game in succession, made no mistake after being picked out by Rico Lewis in the box at Estadio de la Ceramica.
Pep Guardiola’s side are hoping to continue their strong start to the campaign, having won five of their opening eight Premier League games, as well as a win and draw in the Champions league against Napoli and Monaco, respectively.
As things stand, City are in the top five of the Champions League table, to go with their second place position in the English top-flight.
Haaland’s rich early vein of form could be the beginning of a memorable season in the 25-year-old’s career, with City in the title race and Norway on the brink of men’s World Cup qualification for the first time since 1998.
