Haaland excites Manchester City: scored a brace for the 2-0 win over West Ham.

The task of Manchester City is to become the champion of the Premier League again and so far it starts the 2022-23 season in the best way, with Erling Haaland, their new figure. The Norwegian striker showed his quality in offense and scored a double against West Ham for the 2-0 partial.

The clock was approaching the 65th minute on the grass of the London Stadium and the 'Citizens' had the ball, with great comfort. Despite the pressure they received when playing short passes, Pep Guardiola's team conducted themselves successfully and quickly embarked on building an attack.

Rodri controlled the ball and enabled Kevin De Bruyne, who was waiting in the middle of the field, completely free. The Belgian midfielder controlled, looked up, and took advantage of Phil Foden's run to surprise the West Ham center-backs: he directly sought the speedy Erling Haaland.

The Norwegian forward perfectly broke the offside trap, arrived in the area, positioned himself for his left foot, and defined it low. Goalkeeper Alphonse Areola had advanced to narrow the shooting angle, but he couldn't do anything and watched with regret as the ball inflated his nets.

In this way, Manchester City achieved a victory and starts at the top of the Premier League standings. And the highlight is that Erling Haaland already seems to be fully adapting to English football and becomes one of the main candidates to be the top scorer of the season.
