WATCH | Erling Haaland scores his second consecutive Premier League hattrick inside 40 minutes
With the first mid-week gameweek well underway, all eyes have not been on Manchester City as many expected the Cityzens to beat Nottingham Forest. However, Erling Haaland has made sure of that with the Norwegian netting not once but thrice inside 40 minutes for his second hattrick in as many games.
Manchester City and Erling Haaland has rarely seemed like a match made in heaven but that was until the Norwegian made his Premier League debut. Since then, no player in England’s top flight has netted as many goals as Haaland has with the forward netting 6 goals in 4 league games. An absolutely sensational show of prolific goal-scoring from the Norwegian superstarlet with Manchester City thriving in the process.

Find OutIt’s why few expected nothing less than a goal from the young starlet against Nottingham Forest especially after his second half hattrick over the weekend. However, things don’t always go according to plan but 11 minutes into the first-half and Haaland had scored his first goal with his first touch. The Norwegian put the finishing touches to a sumptuous short corner and lofted the ball beyond Dean Henderson for his and City’s first.
The second came from an error thanks to Dean Henderson as he handed the ball right back to City, they played a sensational and rather City-esque one-touch and pass move before finding Haaland. He laid it off for Phil Foden, who burst into the box and expected to score but a defender poked it clear for Haaland to poke it into an empty net. The third, however, was the typical poacher’s goal as the Norwegian waited patiently inside the six-yard box for the ball to arrive and then promptly nodded it beyond Henderson. He made it look easy.
Erling Haaland has scored six goals over the last 90 minutes!!
This pass from Cancelo for Haaland's third goal is ridiculous

Have Manchester City made a mistake?
Still not sure Haaland will adapt to the Premier League.
