In the early morning of October 22, Erling Haaland scored the opening goal in Man City's 2-0 win over Villarreal in the Champions League qualifying round.

With this goal, the Norwegian striker has scored in 12 consecutive matches in all competitions. Haaland equals the achievement of superstar Cristiano Ronaldo - who set the record of scoring in 12 consecutive matches in 2018.

If Haaland continues to score in the Premier League match against Aston Villa this weekend, he will surpass Ronaldo.

Haaland is having a brilliant season. The Man City striker has played 14 matches in the past 2 months and has scored 24 goals, along with 3 assists. This is a "huge" achievement that no top striker can catch up with.

At club level, Haaland has scored 15 goals for Man City in all competitions, accounting for 65% of the team's total goals. Man City have only scored 23 goals this season (excluding own goals). The second highest scorer for Man City so far is Phil Foden (2 goals).

Haaland's terrible form has made fans worry that Man City is too dependent on this striker. That has made coach Pep Guardiola call on his students to score goals to share the burden with Haaland.
