Pep Guardiola reacts as Erling Haaland adds to "incredible" Champions League record

Pep Guardiola hailed “incredible” Erling Haaland after Manchester City's goal machine scored twice on his Champions League debut for the Blues.

Haaland's double against Sevilla to take his total to 12 goals in seven games for City since his £51million summer move from Borussia Dortmund. The Norway striker, 22, now has a remarkable 25 goals in 20 Champions League appearances, with Guardiola full of praise for his prolific front man.

“The numbers speak for themselves,” said Guardiola. “It's not just the two goals, it's the way he's always there. It's always the feeling that he could score more goals. His numbers, all of his career, even for previous teams, are quite similar. He has an incredible sense of goal.
