After failing against Newcastle and struggling against Sheffield United in the previous round, Haaland’s goal-scoring machine seems to be heating up again. The Norwegian striker scored three goals, all in the second half to seal the victory for the Etihad Stadium team. This performance helped Haaland quickly rise to the top scorer race with six goals in four matches, two goals more than second person Bryan Mbeumo. Man City is back to the familiar leading position. They all won after four rounds, two points more than second in the Tottenham table.
