The Norwegian was in terrifying form in his first match of the new season. Maybe he can still beat last season's incredible record.
The Premier League returns and with it Erling Haaland. And even with a dynamic start. The unbeaten striker made a strong start to the new season, scoring twice in Manchester City's 3-0 win over Burnley, showing just how much appetite he still has for goals despite already breaking all the records last year.
He put the champions ahead in just the fourth minute and scored an impressive second before half-time, with a powerful move from the edge of the area and after the ball first found the crossbar. Rodry, who was City's best player alongside Haaland, added even more sparkle to the victory, scoring the third goal from close range.
Burnley, who had played well but missed two clear-cut chances to equalize in the first half, saw Anas Zarouri sent off in extra time for a hard tackle on Kyle Walker.
