Gareth Taylor insists Man City's women have their own Erling Haaland after scoring streak

Man City boss Gareth Taylor believes top goalscorer Khadija 'Bunny' Shaw has a "supreme" mentality similar to that of men's striker Erling Haaland.

Both Shaw and Haaland have set new records for the respective City first-teams this season. The Jamaican scored twice in a 2-1 win at Brighton last weekend, meaning she now has a remarkable 26 goals in 22 games in all competitions this season.

That set a new club record for the women's team, for most goals in a single campaign. Haaland, meanwhile, has 39 goals in 36 games, with his five-goal haul against RB Leipzig in a 7-0 win on Tuesday confirming he had broken the equivalent record for the men's team - which had stood unbroken for 94 years.
