Erling Haaland Scripts Premier League History As Man City Edge Ipswich In 3-2 Thriller

His performance not only contributed to Man City's sixth win of the season but also made him the fastest player to reach 100 non-penalty goals in Premier League history. In the 34th minute of the first half, the talented Norwegian striker gave Man City a 2-1 lead.

In the 69th minute of the match, he scored his second goal. In addition to securing Man City's sixth victory of the new campaign, Haaland's two goals made him the fastest player in history to record 100 goals without a penalty.

Haaland Leading Man City's Charge In just 139 games, Haaland scored 100 non-penalty goals in the Premier League. In fewer than 139 games, no other player has accomplished the same feat.

Haaland, who has participated in all seven games, has also scored eight goals for the Manchester-based team in the ongoing Premier League season. He scored one goal in the previous league game at Anfield against Liverpool before his brace against Ipswich.

Haaland, who scored seven goals for Norway in the FIFA World Cup in 2026, has already scored two goals this season against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park and one apiece against Coventry City, Manchester United, and Sunderland. Haaland scored eight goals in the 2026-2027 Premier League season, all of which were not penalties.

Perfect Start Under Enzo Maresca For the 2026-27 Premier League season, Enzo Maresca took over as manager of Manchester City from Pep Guardiola. The former Chelsea manager has gotten off to a stunning start as the team has won seven of their first seven games.

He is the only manager to win every one of his first seven games in the history of the competition. As head managers of Chelsea, Manchester City, and Manchester United, respectively, Carlo Ancelotti, Pep Guardiola, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer all won their first six Premier League games.
