Erling Haaland’s incredible goal-scoring form shows no signs of slowing down, as he netted his 70th Premier League goal in just 69 games for Manchester City, leading the champions to a 3-1 victory over West Ham United.

Haaland’s opener came inside 10 minutes, courtesy of a Bernardo Silva assist, before Ruben Dias’ own goal briefly levelled the score.

However, Haaland’s venomous strike and later tap-in sealed the win, showcasing his remarkable skills.

The Norwegian sensation has now set multiple records, including the most goals in a single season, back-to-back Golden Boots, and becoming the first player to score seven goals in the opening three matches of a campaign.

Pep Guardiola’s side maintained their perfect start to the season, moving two points clear of Arsenal ahead of the international break.

The City manager praised Haaland, saying, “He is unbelievable; the second and first goal unique; he is incredible for the team.”

Guardiola’s unbeaten record against West Ham remains intact, with 15 wins and 2 draws in 17 Premier League encounters.
