Erling Haaland joins elite Premier League trio for a unique achievement

In the tenth round of the Premier League, Manchester City hosted Bournemouth and secured a 3–1 victory. One of the Citizens’ stars carved his name into the league’s record books.

Details: Erling Haaland scored a brace in the match. According to Opta, he has become only the third player in Premier League history to net two or more goals in four consecutive home games. Before him, this feat was achieved by Robbie Fowler — four matches — and Luis Suárez, who did it in five straight home appearances.

Interestingly, Pep Guardiola substituted the Norwegian forward in the 82nd minute, bringing on Omar Marmoush. After the match, Haaland playfully joked about his substitution.

Reminder: Following the game, Pep Guardiola was asked about Jérémy Doku’s performance in his new role, as the Belgian featured as an inside forward.
