Haaland sets new Premier League away goals record
Another game provided yet another outstanding achievement for Erling Haaland, now a scorer in his first four Premier League away matches.
Erling Haaland became the first player to score in each of his opening four Premier League away games after finding the net in Manchester City’s win at Wolves. The striker continued his blistering start to life in England, taking his goal tally in all competitions to 14 already as he doubled City’s lead at Molineux on Saturday afternoon.
After Jack Grealish opened the scoring just 55 seconds into the game, Haaland struck in the 16th minute as he received Bernardo Silva’s pass before drilling a 20-yard shot beyond Jose Sa’s reach. That was also the Norway international’s 100th goal in 99 games across all competitions since leaving Salzburg for Borussia Dortmund in January 2020. Phil Foden made it 0-3 on 69 minutes as City extended their unbeaten run to seven games and knock Arsenal off the top of the Premier League table. The Gunners are in action tomorrow, away at Brentford.
