Erling Haaland labels Liverpool star 'unreal' before Man City Champions League final

Erling Haaland has named Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk as his toughest opponent during his first season in the Premier League.

The Manchester City striker broke the league's record for the most goals scored in a single campaign with his 36 strikes. However, he failed to score in his one league appearance against the Reds.

Haaland could not stop City from going down 1-0 at Anfield in October as Liverpool defender Van Dijk got the better of him. The Norwegian also failed to score in the season curtain-raiser at the King Power Stadium as the Reds ran out 3-1 winners in the Community Shield.
