With a first-half hat-trick and four goals overall past Wolves’ Jose Sa, the Manchester City striker recorded yet another incredible haul of goals on Saturday night, giving Pep Guardiola’s team the victory.
But even though the game was almost over before the final whistle blew, Pep Guardiola took advantage of the situation to give players like Erling Haaland an early rest, taking them out of the game with about 15 minutes to go.Haaland was visibly upset by the decision, expressing his annoyance as he walked off the field, during a heated conversation with manager Guardiola, and while sitting next to Sergio Gomez on the substitutes bench.
When Erling Haaland made his comments on the matter 24 hours later, following some startling remarks from the striker, television pundit and former Manchester United midfielder Roy Keane expressed his displeasure with the striker’s actions.
