Salutations to The Bold Viking! After breaking the single-season Premier League goal-scoring record with his 35th goal of the season, Manchester City players give Erling Haaland a guard of honor. However, the Norwegian admits that he would trade all of them for the Triple Crown. Erling Haaland has broken the record for the most goals scored in a Premier League season. He now surpasses the 42-game season records held by Alan Shearer and Andrew Cole. He also broke the record for the most goals scored in a 38-
With a deft finish over Lukasz Fabianski, the Norwegian made it 2-0 against West Ham, surpassing Andrew Cole and Alan Shearer in the single-season scoring stakes.
Haaland received a standing ovation from the entire Etihad crowd before leaving the field following the 3-1 victory over the Hammers, and his teammates lined up to present him with a guard of honor.
The Norwegian player is said to be a humble and highly regarded member of Pep Guardiola's imperious squad, which was further demonstrated by the scenes.
He was slapped on the back of the head and the back by all of the players and staff members before he left with a huge smile on his face. At the point when he arrived at the end, he should have been visible scouring his back as though to will away the agony, however the grin remained.
Haaland acknowledged his accomplishment in an interview with Sky Sports following the game and referred to it as a "special night."
He stated, "Special night and a special moment." I'm extremely pleased and proud. Obviously I had some awareness of it, yet we attempted to make the opportunities to score objectives, we battled a piece in the primary half, however last part Nate (Ake) scored and I scored, as a significant win.'
After City had taken the lead, Danny Ings made a mistake that allowed Haaland to run through and score the crucial second. He also revealed that Jack Grealish, who provided the assist, had stated prior to the game that he wanted to be a part of the clinching moment.

"It was nice to feel the guard of honor, especially considering how important it is to win the game." It was truly difficult, everybody hit me on the back.'
Haaland's 51st objective of the time carried him nearer and nearer to Dixie Dignitary's apparently unsurpassable record of 65 objectives in the 1927-28 mission. There has never been a player from England who has come even close to doing so.
Haaland acknowledged, "I don’t think of this, I sleep tonight, and then I think about three points against Leeds." I will return home now and play some computer games and afterward talk. It would be too embarrassing for me to specify which video game.
Guardiola praised Haaland afterward, calling him a "unique and special" person and footballer.

'Player obviously, however the individual is likewise so exceptional. It was nice; he is deserving of the guard of honor we provided for him because he has reached such a significant milestone.
"Maybe one of him or another player will break his record, but he would need to score a lot of goals."

He said, "He works so hard, he's a top player, and he stays so humble. He deserves everything he gets." I hope he can rack up even more points. We must continue to push, as Leeds on Saturday will be difficult.'
In the interim, acclaim for him was not scant via web-based entertainment.
Haaland broke Shearer's record of 34 goals in the 1994–95 season, which he shared with Cole, who had scored the same number the year before. Shearer said he couldn't have wanted it to happen to a "nicer guy." It just took 28 years! He's awesome.'
His social media post came in response to a joke from a Match of the Day coworker offering Shearer his condolences.
