3:0 lead squandered
Haaland: Historic CL show followed by mega frustration
Erling Haaland once again made history on Tuesday evening. Because Manchester City squandered a comfortable 3:0 lead in the Champions League against Feyenoord Rotterdam, the Norwegian "goal machine" was left with mega frustration.
It had looked so good! After a brace from Erling Haaland and a goal from Ilkay Gündogan, everything seemed to have been decided in Manchester. Haaland's first goal was also a historic one: the 24-year-old broke the 50-point scoring mark (45 goals and five assists) - after just 44 games in the Champions League. Impressive!
According to the data collected by "Opta", no player has ever reached the 50 mark so quickly before. Thanks to the second goal, Haaland now has 51 scorer points.
Manchester City in crisis
However, he could not be happy in the end, as Feyenoord with ÖFB player Gernot Trauner fought back from 3-0 down on Tuesday and sensationally drew 3-3. Manchester City are the first team in the history of the Champions League to lead by three goals up to the 75th minute and not win in the end.
This further exacerbated the English champions' crisis. Pep Guardiola's team had previously suffered five defeats in a row in competitive matches. They are only 15th in the Premier League table.
