Erling Haaland continues without scoring, the record that worries Pep Guardiola

Manchester City managed to beat RB Leipzig in a match where they had to battle and resorted to the bench to achieve victory. In the case of the club, the big concern is precisely Erling Haaland who once again failed to score in this match. The citizen team is at the top of its group and everything seems to be heading towards qualifying, but there is great concern with Erling Haaland, who has not yet broken his goal drought.

Until Julián Álvarez entered from the substitute bench to rescue his team. With an impressive shot lying on the left, he hung it from the corner and made it 2 to 1 at 84'. And with two added minutes, Jeremy Doku went one-on-one and made no mistake to put the game away. However, a negative record by Erling Haaland is already beginning to worry many.

Julian Alvarez came out in a great way in this match and was among the main scorers against the German team. However, the Norwegian striker has now recorded five consecutive UEFA Champions League games that he has failed to score. This is a record that a player like Haaland rarely has. The forward now must improve his performance against the high level of Julian Alvarez.

Manchester City's situation in the Champions League

With this victory, City remained the sole leader with 6 points. Behind is Leipzig, with 3, while third and fourth are Young Boys and Estrella Roja, both with one point. The next date will be October 25 and Guardiola's men will go against the Swiss team. Manchester City's main objective remains to defend its crown in the current season. However, the road is long and everything will be extremely complicated for it to happen. For now, the club delivered on the second day and each time they count the days until they can count on De Bruyne again, who they miss so much.
