Guardiola says Haaland on same level as Messi, Ronaldo FMTNews FMTSports
Manchester City’s Erling Haaland celebrates after scoring his side’s third goal during the match against Southampton.
“The second goal was amazing. It is not easy to pick the ball up in the sky and put it on the grass,” said Guardiola, who coached Messi during four years as Barcelona coach.“As a top scorer we lived two incredible decades with Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi but he is on that level. He scores a lot of goals. I am very happy with 65 minutes after injury and he helped us again.”
City went through the gears after the break as an eighth consecutive win in all competitions kept Guardiola’s men in the hunt for a treble of trophies. That was the striker’s final touch as he then made way for Julian Alvarez for the final 20 minutes with one eye on Bayern’s visit in midweek.
