Erling Haaland vs Wolves' Jonny clip goes viral
One moment involving Haaland from the second half has gone viral on social media.
As City launched a counter-attack after winning possession, Haaland only had one thing on his mind: get into the box.
Wolves defender Jonny saw this and did all he could to try and thwart Haalandâs progress off the ball.

But trying to stop Haaland in full flight is like trying to halt a steam train. Jonny was effortlessly pushed aside twice by Cityâs 6ft 5in No. 9.
Haalandâs strength and speed brought him several yards of space and he almost certainly would have scored his 15th goal of the campaign had Kevin De Bruyne picked him out.
