Haaland crushed Wolves with a triple in Sarabia’s debut

Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City beat Julen Lopetegui’s Wolves 3-0 on Sunday and temporarily stood 2 points behind leaders Arsenal, but less than three hours later, as Mikel Arteta’s side came from behind against Manchester United (3 -2) and back to 5 and have one less game. All the work Lopetegui, the Wolves coach, did to stop City, who worked for him until the 40th minute, brought him down on Sunday. Erling Haaland, who in 54 minutes achieved a ‘hat trick’ at the Etihad that decided the match.

Until 40′ Wolves were well placed, defending themselves in order. It was a good match for Lopetegui’s men despite the final result. But then the Haaland festival began, the Premier’s ‘pichichi’ with at least 25 goals, broken records and that against Lopetegui’s team he achieved his fourth hat trick so far in the Premier.

Haaland ended Wolves’ solidity. He first put City ahead with a header, after a good pass from Kevin de Bruyne. Y after the break came the Norwegian star’s second goal, by changing the penalty taken by Ruben Neves in an action with Ilkay Gündogan. Key play.

Finally, in 54′ Haaland completed his hat-trick, this time assisted by Riyad Mahrez. In the 61st minute, Pep Guardiola ordered the substitution of the Norwegian striker for world champion Julián Álvarez to enter.

Haaland, 22, has so far achieved 4 triplets in his first Premier: against Crystal Palace (4-2 for City), Nottingham Forest (6-0), Manchester United (6-3 for Guardiola’s men) and this Sunday against Wolves. In all competitions, 31 ‘targets’ from Haaland for City.

Sarabia’s debut with Wolves

The ‘citizens’ had a chance to extend their advantage and Mahrez’s goal was disallowed. But the score remained at 3-0 which Haaland left on the scoreboard. Wolves also had chances, such as Daniel Podence’s, which came in the 67′ for Mario Lemina. It also contributed to improve the attack of Wolves Pablo Sarabia, who, coming from PSG, made his debut in his new team when he came in after the break for Adama Traoré. But, despite Lopetegui’s men improving on the offensive side, he can’t remember the distances.
