Erling Haaland has hogged the headlines all season. And rightly so. With 51 goals this campaign - and counting - fans have become accustomed to seeing the Norwegian's name plastered across the front pages.
Yet, as the hour mark passed at the Bernabeu on Tuesday, with Manchester City trailing by a goal against reigning Champions League winners Real Madrid, it seemed Haaland would finally be out of the headlines. At least for positive reasons.
Real Madrid's experienced defence shackled the FWA Footballer of the Year and kept him uncharacteristically quiet throughout the match, as David Alaba and Antonio Rudiger matched him for size, strength and pace.
