Erling Haaland has once again etched his name into football history, adding to his remarkable legacy at the FIFA Club World Cup.
The Manchester City striker made headlines during his side’s convincing 5-2 victory over Juventus on 26 June, finding the net with his trademark unorthodox yet deadly finish.
Famed for his strength, movement, and relentless hunger for goals, Haaland continues to prove that scoring doesn’t always have to look pretty. His strike against Juventus was a perfect example of his sharp instincts and incredible positioning, as City dismantled the Italian giants.
Haaland’s path to 300 career goals has been extraordinary. He has scored more for Manchester City than any other club in his career so far, notching an impressive 123 goals in just 145 appearances — a strike rate that highlights his world-class consistency.
Before his move to City, the Norwegian hitman bagged 86 goals for Borussia Dortmund, showcasing his clinical edge in the Bundesliga. On the international stage, he has already scored 42 goals for Norway, and that tally keeps growing with each outing for his country.
His goal against Juventus was his second of this Club World Cup campaign, pushing him further up the tournament’s scoring charts, with only five players sitting ahead of him.
Next up, Manchester City face Al Hilal in the FIFA Club World Cup Round of 16 on 30 June at 9:00 p.m. ET in Orlando, Florida. The winner will go on to meet either Inter Milan or Fluminense in the quarter-finals.
