Haalan, who started scoring against Sotton, tied last season’s top scorer in Manchester City’s league, The Bruyne.
[골닷컴] Reporter Park Moon-soo = It’s still October (?), but Elling Hollan tied the record for most goals scored in the Manchester City Premier League last season in nine games. Kevin De Bruyne is the top scorer in the Premier League for the 2021/22 season. 15 goals scored.
Manchester City won 4-0 at home against Southampton in the ‘2022/23 Premier League Round 10’ held at ‘Etihad Stadium’ on the afternoon of the 8th (Korean time).
As expected, Manchester City took the lead. From the beginning of the match, he continued to attack and shake the opponent. The long-awaited goal of Hollan was a little late. There was an opportunity, but the zero point was not taken. Then, in the 20th minute of the second half, he pushed in an assist from Cancelo with his left foot and became the team’s fourth goal scorer.
The latest point to watch for Man City is Halan’s scoring streak. In nine games, Halan has scored 15 goals. It is an encouraging record in many ways as Manchester City suffered from a lack of a fixer.
Not to mention, Manchester City’s top scorer last season was ‘Midfielder’ The Bruyne. As early as October, Halan has already scored 15 goals in the Premier League. It is the 20th goal including the cup competition.
With a goal against Southampton, Halan has been on the run for more than 20 goals in four consecutive seasons. He scored 44 goals in the 2019/20 season, and played 41 goals the following season. Last season, when he was often absent due to injury, Halan scored 29 goals in 30 appearances.
This season, he has scored 20 goals in 13 matches. Looking at the scoring pace alone, it is only a matter of time before Salah’s record of 32 goals in the 2017/18 season, which is the record for the most goals scored in a Premier League season, is just a matter of time.
According to the Premier League standards, Halan has all the attacking points in operation. He was able to score points in all matches except the second round against Bournemouth. He set a new record for a hat-trick in three consecutive home matches against Crystal Palace, Nottingham Forest and Manchester United.
He also started scoring against Southampton this time, becoming the first Manchester City player since Aguero to score goals in seven consecutive league games.
After the match against Copenhagen on the morning of the 12th, Manchester City will face Liverpool on the morning of the 17th. As he is a formidable opponent, it is of interest whether Halan’s scoring record will continue.
