Erling Haaland sets personal record: what is the secret of his ninth consecutive game with a goal.

Erling Haaland in excellent form

According to The Sun: Erling Haaland is experiencing the best stage of his career. That is why it is worth taking seriously the chances of Manchester City in the battle for the title this season.

The Norwegian forward scored in his ninth consecutive match for club and country, opening the scoring in the game.

Previously, Haaland managed to score eight times in a row, and now he has reached a new record. The last time he achieved such a feat was in 2022 while playing for Manchester City and Norway.

“Before the match, I prepared for victory, and the players supported this positive mindset,” said Haaland after the game.

Haaland scored in the ninth minute, stunning everyone with an impressive dribble past the defender and a precise shot past the goalkeeper.

This goal secured Manchester City’s victory over Brentford, reducing the gap from Arsenal to three points.

This was Pep Guardiola's 250th win in the Premier League, and the team showed a serious dependence on Haaland, although in this case, it does not seem to be a big problem.

The team showed dominance

City were completely dominant in the first half and could have scored several more goals. However, they went into halftime with a one-goal lead.

Brentford's head coach, Keith Andrews, was probably dissatisfied with his team's performance at halftime, as their level of play fell significantly behind their opponents.

Haaland experienced anxiety again when his team failed to capitalize on a few decent chances, but in the end, City managed to secure the win.

If Haaland stays healthy, his impressive scoring ability may be key to Manchester City’s success in this year's championship.
