In the 21st round of the English Premier League, Manchester City hosted Brighton. The intense and intense match ended in a 1-1 draw. The result was not easy for both the "citizens" and the visitors - there was a struggle on the field in every episode, a fight for every ball.
City's only goal came from Erling Haaland. Most importantly, this goal put an end to the 25-year-old Norwegian forward's three-match goalless streak. Haaland did his job: he scored from a penalty at the right moment and gave the fans the expected "explosion."
This goal went down in history with another big number: for Haaland, it marked his 150th goal for Manchester City. The club's press service also specifically congratulated the forward on this high achievement - not everyone is fortunate enough to reach this level.
Statistics show his effectiveness even more clearly: Erling played a total of 173 matches in all competitions to score 150 goals for City. He also has 25 assists. That is, it is not only the final one - it is an offensive machine that also benefits the team in creating a situation.
As a reminder, Haaland has been playing for Manchester City since the summer of 2022. He moved to Manchester from Borussia Dortmund, and since then, the goal conveyor at Etihad has hardly stopped.
According to Transfermarkt, the player's current market value is estimated at €200 million. For this reason, Haaland is also mentioned among the three most expensive footballers in the world.
In short, the draw remained a draw, but Haaland's 150th goal was a special mood for City fans. Now the main thing is for this goal to be the beginning of a new series: this is exactly the kind of Haaland the Citizens need on their way to the championship.
