Erling Haaland gave Pep Guardiola's side a 2-0 lead in their Premier League clash against Brighton.
Erling Haaland scored a very rare goal vs Brighton, it's only the second time he's done it for CityAhead of Manchester City's home clash against Brighton, the often-reliable Erling Haaland was on his joint-longest Premier League scoring drought – but it took him just 19 minutes to break that 'dry spell' on Saturday.
The 23-year-old forward, who scored 36 Premier League goals in his debut campaign for Pep Guardiola's men, has somewhat struggled to find the net of late .And the former Borussia Dortmund striker has still never gone three consecutive Premier League games without scoring – a quite remarkable record all things considered."I always said that the Ballon d'Or had to be of two sections - one for Messi and one for the others," he said."Haaland should win.
"Egotistically, I would say I want Erling because he helped us to achieve what we achieved, I would love it, but I won't tell you it's unfair if Leo wins."Guardiola added:"It's nice that many players for Man City will be there for the first time in many years and challenging for these trophies. That makes us so proud for our organisation.
