England star fires a treble as Haaland takes night off
NO Erling Haaland, no problem for Manchester City, particularly when you have Phil Foden.
With Haaland rested on the bench, England midfielder Foden stepped up to score his second hat-trick of the season and take his tally for the campaign to a career-best 21.

The 23-year-old was simply unplayable here, his goals keeping City on course for an historic fourth straight league title with a win that showed their intent to push all the way.Just 24 hours after hailing Haaland as the best striker in the world, in response to Roy Keane's criticism of the City forward, Pep Guardiola sprung a surprise by naming him among his substitutes.
