Haaland continued, “I feel good to score but a bit disappointed to not win. One point is better than zero. It’s not easy to come here. We know Chelsea are a good team, so we prepared to play them, and we did our best. We didn’t play badly, we made mistakes but that’s football.”

Haaland’s introspection provides a refreshing take on the game, emphasizing the nuances beyond the scoreboard. Erling Haaland opened the scoring for City in the thrilling match from the penalty spot. Just minutes after his goal, 39-year-old Thiago Silva became Chelsea’s oldest goalscorer, and Raheem Sterling netted against his old club. Manuel Akanji leveled for City just before half-time, and Haaland scored just after it – his 49th Premier League goal in his 47th game. However, deep in stoppage time, Chelsea had a spot-kick that Cole Palmer, a summer signing from City, slammed home.

Haaland eyeing another Premier League record

Beyond the thrilling drama at Stamford Bridge, Erling Haaland’s goal-scoring phenomenon looks astonishing. Haaland has scored 17 goals in just 18 appearances for City this season. With his brace against Chelsea, the Norwegian is only a goal away from reaching the mark of 50 Premier League goals. In addition, he could become the fastest player to reach 50 goals in the Premier League by scoring in his next league match.

The current record is with Premier League legend Andy Cole, who achieved the 50-goal mark in 65 appearances. Though the record is in Haaland’s sights, the 23-year-old remains nonchalant, stating, “I don’t care too much about it. I care about performing and developing.”

As the dust settles on the Stamford Bridge spectacle, Erling Haaland’s words linger in the minds of soccer enthusiasts. It’ll be interesting to see how well Haaland’s journey shapes in the coming stages of the Premier League this season.
