I was a commentator in my own home about the World Cup but nobody was listening to me. We've seen in the training sessions he has the ability to put the ball into the net. Given the reputation he has and how tall he is, but his character is completely the opposite. Man City striker Erling Haaland told Amazon Prime: "I said to my team-mates I could have scored five and that's the truth. We were exceptional in the first half but we wasted opportunities... It was his first Premier League goal of the season and remarkably City's first from open play away from home in five games. The two performances since coming back, against Liverpool [in the Carabao Cup] and today have been great." Leeds had lost by an aggregate score of 11-0 to Man City over the course of their Premier League meetings last season and another heavy defeat looked on the cards before Pascal Struijk pulled one back with 16 minutes to play. City's 16 efforts made for the biggest disparity between two teams in any Premier League game this season. But Rodri's opener (45+1) moments before the break rewarded Man City's supremacy and when Haaland hit the net twice in 13 minutes there was only going to be one outcome. City eventually got their goal on the stroke of half-time, though, with Rodri brilliantly rolling on a De Bruyne pass for Riyad Mahrez before reacting quickest to turn in the rebound from his team-mate's shot. Leeds boss Jesse Marsch had coached Haaland at RB Salzburg earlier in his career but, like so many Premier League managers this season, could find no way to keep the prolific frontman at bay.
