Erling Haaland continued his monstrous start to the season by leaving Premier League legends in his wake against Manchester United.
The Manchester City No.9 scored twice in a 3-0 derby win at the Etihad and shoved his way past two greats in two different categories.
Haaland scored his first of the match in the 58th minute GettyHe doubled his tally in the 68th minute as City ran riot at the Etihad[/caption]The strikes were Haaland’s tenth and 11th goal involvements in the Manchester derby, sending him past the iconic Wayne Rooney’s nine.
He now has Ryan Giggs’ all-time record of 13 goals involvements in his sights.
And if that isn’t impressive enough, Haaland was playing in the fixture for the sixth time, compared to Rooney’s 21 derbies.
His double also put him on 90 Premier League goals, leapfrogging the Norwegian over Chelsea legend Didier Drogba’s 88, doing so in 153 fewer games.
Haaland also reached his 50th home Premier League goal in just 50 games, with only Alan Shearer doing so quicker in 47 games.
Overall it’s one of Haaland’s best-ever season starts for club and country with 13 goals and two assists overall in eight games.
In his match prior to the Manchester derby, he found the back of the net five times in Norway’s 11-1 World Cup qualifying win over Moldova.
