Erling Haaland hat-trick sees off Wolves, with seven home matches still to come in the 2022/23 league campaign, Haaland's hat-trick against Wolves on Sunday took him to 18 home strikes - that sees the Norwegian move beyond Sergio Aguero's previous record tally of 16 set in 2011/12. After failing to score in three consecutive games, the Norwegian returned to form in the previous match, against Tottenham Hotspur when he equalized to start City’s comeback win.
Haaland took his total to 24 goals for the season with his hat-trick against Wolves, a higher tally than the last four Golden Boot winners. He scored in the 40th, 50th and 54th minute to complete a lightning-fast hat-trick and storm even further up the Premier League goal-scoring charts. The tally eclipses the 23 goals scored by Jamie Vardy in 2019-20, Harry Kane in 2020-21 and Mohamed Salah and Heung-min Son in 2021-22, and two clear of the 22 scored by Salah, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Sadio Mane back in 2018-19.
The record-breaking hat-trick cements Haaland’s place back in the goals, adding to a strike against Tottenham following a period of three matches without scoring. For City, his goals meant they took control against Wolves, as Pep Guardiola’s side looked to narrow the gap between themselves and Arsenal to just two points. The 22-year-old hopes to continue his fine goal-scoring form when City hosts league leaders Arsenal in the FA Cup fourth round on Friday.
In this match (against Wolves), he continued to find the net, taking his goal tally to 25 – two more than the number of goals that saw Mohammed Salah and Heung Min-Son share the Golden Boot last season.
