Premier League: Haaland wipes top scorers of last four seasons with new hat-trick

There are no adjectives to describe Erling Haaland’s thunderous, unique, unthinkable season. The Norwegian ogre struck again. Three times. It took him just an hour of play on Sunday to score a new hat-trick, his fourth in this fiscal year 2022-23. Against Wolves, Erling Haaland dominated the debate and allowed himself to score his 23rd, 24th and 25th Premier League goals in a 3-0 win against Manchester City, who are behind Arsenal by two points in the rankings.

If the entrance to his match was calm enough, then the Norwegian was able to put the afterburner at the end of the first period. At the 40th minute, the first draft of his masterpiece took shape. After the work of Riyad Mahrez on the right flank, the ball flies to the feet of Kevin De Bruyne, who delivers an accurate cross to the far post on the head of the blond giant, who can only beat the defenders.

Entering the dressing room with such a small lead, Haaland laid the second stone five minutes after resuming this time. Citizens’ number 9 scored his 24th goal in 20 games thanks to a perfectly matched penalty, earning him the privilege of scoring more goals than the top scorers of the last four seasons… at the end of the year. ! Aubameyang, Salah, Mane, Vardy, Kane and son are leaving, 18 days left …

And if that wasn’t enough, the City striker took advantage of the opposing goaltender’s huge mistake on the raise to finish off his master class with a hat-trick. No one in history has scored so many goals in such a short time. With each meeting, the unthinkable is pushed back, as are the limits of the player, which you wonder if he really has them. Faced with such ease, Pep Guardiola even decided to return his star to the refrigerator from the hour mark. Who knows what more carnage he could have unleashed if he had stayed on the field longer?
