Erling Haaland hat trick puts Man City into FA Cup semifinal (ESPN)

It can't be luck -- Erling Haaland must have a goal-scoring sixth sense. With it, the treble is within grasp for Man City.

[Premier League](/soccer/league/_/name/eng.1)), RB Leipzig ( [Champions League](/soccer/league/_/name/uefa.champions)) and Burnley ( [FA Cup](/soccer/league/_/name/eng.fa)) in the space of eights days before the international break could define the season: "We have three games, each in a different competition, that will define our season," Guardiola said then. With the loss, Burnley had an 18-game unbeaten streak in all competitions snapped. Manchester United in the Carabao Cup. He scored twice in the first half, three minutes apart. The way his season is going, he was probably disappointed to only score twice in February, but he's making up for it in March. Burnley manager Vincent Kompany on the result: "The only thing I can say is that [the loss] takes nothing away from what the lads have done so far. The penalty area was full of Burnley defenders and City attackers but the ball fell to Haaland, who had drifted towards the back post. Kompany on his reception from Man City supporters: "When it actually happens it still takes you by surprise. [RB Leipzig](/soccer/team?id=11420) in the Champions League on Tuesday, of which Haaland has contributed eight. Well, the Man City manager couldn't have asked for much more. He's reached 42 goals in his first year in England and has found the net nine times in his last three games, including five against Kompany on Haaland: "My defenders are quick, all of them.

Manchester City 6-0 Burnley: Erling Haaland nets ANOTHER hat ... (Daily Mail)

ROB DRAPER AT THE ETIHAD: Kompnay appreciated it was all too much, too young, suspecting it might be a case of being drowned in praise before being forced ...

‘What everyone sees is his goals [but] his movement in the box, his athleticism and pace to be on end of those balls….and he is at the right place for his development, with right coach. Cole Palmer, the 20 year old replacement for Haaland, would find himself with a clear opportunity to make it 5-0 on 67 minutes after Peacock-Farrell had deflected Foden’s cross into his path. Guess who was there, taking a perfectly coordinated swing first time and nailing the rebound for his hat-trick? This time it was the brilliance of Kevin De Bruyne’s ball inside right back Connor Roberts was simply impossible to defend, which was followed by Phil Foden rolling his cross into the path of Haaland for 2-0. Three minutes later Riyad Mahrez found De Bruyne and Alvarez finished the incisive move for 4-0. Foden was buzzing around like the best kid on the playground showing off and accelerated past his man on 60 minutes, tucked away his shot, only to see it rebound off the post. But it didn’t help Burnley that their positional reinterpretation of English football involved Ameen Al-Dakhill deciding not to track Haaland after initially challenging for a header on 32 minutes. They’re part of a special elite and even the very best defenders find it hard to stop those guys. They went man for man on City and refused to change their style of play. Kompany knew it was all too much, too young, a case of being drowned in praise before scrambling for the lifeboats. Someone like Erling will keep finding a way.’ That’s quite the list to be namechecked with. There isn’t a team in world football that permit do that and emerge unscathed.

Man City's Haaland creating 'problems' with hat tricks - Pep (ESPN)

Pep Guardiola said Erling Haaland is creating a "problem" for himself because he has been so good he's expected to score hat tricks in every game.

It's an honour to play Bayern and the semifinal in Wembley again. "We're in a good moment, definitely," Guardiola said. "This guy will have a problem in the future, people expect every game he scores three or four goals and this isn't going to happen," Guardiola said.

Erling Haaland is breaking goal-scoring records for Manchester City this season and is changing expectations in the Premier League and English soccer.

He is as he is — a high-spec, Terminator-style No. He knows that he will have the chance, he will be there. But as it remains, he keeps scoring goals, from anywhere and everywhere, with any part of his body (even with his Samurai bun if he whims so), with minimum fuss, at any time of the game, in any part of the globe. Calling him a goalscorer is reductionist like all he knows is how to score goals. It is not just that he scores goals, but scores them at a bewildering frequency. He touched the ball just 30 times — but one in six ended up as a goal.

Erling Haaland existed on the margins for the first half hour, but the best players always use this time to gather information. When the Norway striker won a long punt from Ortega, he timed his run to collect Julian Alvarez’s return ball and outfoxed Burnley goalkeeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell with a deft one-touch finish. Kompany’s ex-teammate Craig Bellamy was among the first batch of post-takeover signings in January 2009 and proved a popular player during a brief and occasionally tumultuous stay. Signed from Hamburg for £6 million, Kompany joined City at the very end of that era on August 22, 2008. He’d have chalked up many more but for recurrent debilitating calf injuries, but those struggles simply endeared Kompany to the City faithful even more.
