Haaland equalling Salah's Premier League goal record makes treble a real possibility for Man City

MANCHESTER, England -- Erling Haaland only played for 45 minutes against Leicester City on Saturday but it was still more than enough time for the Manchester City striker to equal another record.

Starting the game on 30 Premier League goals, he was on 32 by the time 25 minutes had elapsed at the Etihad Stadium, his first goal a penalty and the second a delicate clipped finish over Daniel Iversen in the Leicester goal. It was that one that tied Mohamed Salah's record for most goals in a 38-game Premier League season, set in 2018.
