Jack Grealish has revealed that he shared a moment of disbelief with FC Copenhagen's goalkeeper after Erling Haaland had scored yet again for Manchester City.
Three days after sticking six goals past Manchester United City had developed a fresh hunger for goals, and of course Haaland was in the middle of the action. The 22-year-old grabbed a first-half brace as City eased into a 3-0 lead by half time, before Riyad Mahrez and Julian Alvarez scored in the second half to complete a 5-0 win.
Haaland has now scored 19 goals in his first 12 matches in all competitions for City, a staggering return quite unlike anything witnessed in the modern game. The jaws of City fans and pundits alike keep dropping to the ground each time Haaland finds the back of the net, and the striker is starting to have the same effect on his teammates.
