Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne continue to shatter records in Man Utd demolition job

The records continue to fall at the feet of superstar Manchester City duo Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne.

The pair were at their world-beating best as City thumped Manchester United in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon, combining twice in the 6-3 triumph at the Etihad Stadium. Haaland powered home a header from De Bruyne's corner shortly after the half-hour mark, following Phil Foden's opener, before latching onto the Belgian's brilliant pass to put City 3-0 up just three minutes later.

Haaland and Foden would go on to complete hat-tricks on a glorious day for the Sky Blues, which was only slightly dampened by momentary lapses in defensive focus in the second half. The Manchester derby saw all manner of records broken, with Foden surpassing Lionel Messi as the youngest player to score 50 goals under Pep Guardiola.
