Erling Haaland is inherently a ‘monster’ in his ability to score goals for Dortmund.
This morning, Erling Haaland continued to fire fiercely, scoring all 3 goals, helping Norway win 3-2 against the Swedish guests in the 2022/23 Nations League.
Haaland showed why Man City had to spend no less than 100 million euros (including 60 million euros for breaking the contract along with other bribes and extra fees) to get his signature.

In the first goal, he excellently overcame Hjalmar Ekdal’s block to score an accurate header, giving Norway a 1-0 lead.
He always along with his close friend Martin Odegaard became a threat always standing in front of Robin Olsen’s goal.
And in the second half, fear continued to be expressed, leading to a penalty with an illegal tackle by this Aston Villa goalkeeper on Alexander Sorloth.
Haaland did not miss the opportunity to increase the score to 2-0 for coach Stale Solbakken’s team.
Despite allowing Emil Forsberg to shorten the score to 2-1, the extremely accurate cross in the 76th minute for Alexander Sorloth to score showed Haaland’s perfection no matter where he played.

Viktor Gyokeres’ efforts to shorten the score to 2-3 in the last minutes were no longer meaningful.
In other words, Forsberg and his teammates did not lose to Norway, but perhaps, they lost to Haaland in a Norwegian shirt.
2 goals and 1 direct assist make people need to admit why he, along with Mbappe, are considered the `best monsters` of soccer at the moment.
In the shirt of Borussia Dortmund, Haaland has scored 86 goals in 89 times for the Ruhr team.

Obviously, it is difficult to find a comprehensive striker like Haaland at this time.
In fact, Haaland has always been known as a perfect modern `number 9`, someone who can not only seize opportunities to score in difficult situations, but at the same time act as a `magnet` that attracts players.
In the Norwegian shirt, he is currently achieving a performance of 5 goals/4 matches in Nations League matches, and also has an assist for his teammates to score.
Along with Mbappe, Haaland is the brightest star in European football at the moment
Certainly, Man City are the happiest people, when strikers like Raheem Sterling or Gabriel Jesus did not meet Pep Guardiola’s expectations.
Despite possessing `magicians` like Bernardo Silva and especially Kevin de Bruyne, The Citizens still need top strikers like Haaland to concretize their Champions League `dream`.
Pep Guardiola has always longed for a top striker in his squad, since the day he set foot at Etihad Stadium.
