Manchester City News: Erling Haaland Reveals 5 Goals From 5 Touches Dream


Manchester City News: Erling Haaland has revealed his dream is to score five goals from just five touches. The Man City striker was reacting to scrutiny that he does not get much involved in his team’s play. The Norwegian international had just 11 touches of the ball in the first half of Man City’s Champions League match against Borussia Dortmund.

The 22-year-old, though, would eventually prove to be a difference maker as Man City came from behind to secure all three points. Jude Bellingham had given Dortmund a one-goal lead in the 56th minute before John Stones restored parity in the 80th minute.

Erling Haaland would go on to score the winner to seal all three points for Man City at the expense of his former side.

Reacting to scrutiny about his involvement in the game, he said he knows and is doing what he has to do.

“People maybe talk that I don’t touch the ball enough and this and that but I don’t care about this. I know what I’m going to do, what I have to do and this is exactly what I did today in a difficult match and this is exactly what I will keep doing,” Haaland told beIN SPORTS.

He added: “My dream is to touch the ball five times and score five goals. That’s my biggest dream.“

Haaland joined Man City from Borussia Dortmund in the 2022 summer transfer window. He has signed a five-year contract with the Premier League side.

After Crystal Palace had scored two goals in the first half, Bernardo Silva pulled one back at the start of the second half. Haaland followed that up with three goals to earn City all three points.

Haaland scored another hat-trick in Man City’s next game as they trounced Nottingham Forest 6-0. He also added his name to the scoresheet in Man City’s 1-1 draw to Aston Villa.
