Manchester City's Norwegian striker, Erling Haaland, shared his thoughts ahead of the central match against Liverpool in the 11th round of the English Premier League. He stated that personal records or statistics don't interest him - he only plays for the team's victory.
"Why should I think about possible records? When you think about these things, your attention gets distracted. My main task is to help my team get three points. As a striker, I try to score goals, but team victories are even more important. The result should always come first," Haaland said in an interview with Sky Sports.
According to him, in football, the key to success is to think about the team's goal, and not about records:
"Of course, if records come through victories, it's not bad. But for me, this is secondary. If you only think about personal results, this won't benefit the team. Such an approach will not lead to a good result. The main thing is to work and give your life for victory in every match."
For information, Erling Haaland has played in 14 matches across all competitions this season, scoring 18 goals and providing 1 assist. Its effectiveness is currently one of the highest in Europe.
According to fans, Haaland's words demonstrate that he has become a mature player not only on the field but also mentally. Because he prioritizes the spirit of victory over personal goals - this is the main factor that leads the team to the championship.
