Erling Haaland (Manchester City)
November 2025

Haaland became the first player to score in five consecutive Champions League games for three different clubs, netting City’s second after Phil Foden’s opener. The milestone follows prior five-game streaks with Salzburg and Dortmund, underscoring his sustained European efficiency. City manipulated wide isolations through Jeremy Doku to penetrate Dortmund’s block, creating predictable cutback lanes Haaland attacks best. With City unbeaten in the group, his movement across the near-post and penalty-spot channels continues to convert low-touch, high-xG sequences into reliable returns.
