My happiness is not complete yet, I want to win and score a hattrick against Liverpool tomorrow and that has always been my ambition,’ Erling Haaland says after Manchester City recent crisis. Erling Haaland gives verdict about tomorrow 😂😂
Erling Haaland has encountered Liverpool on seven occasions across various competitions, starting with two matches against them while playing for Red Bull Salzburg in the 2019-20 Champions League.
The Norwegian striker netted his first goal against Liverpool during a group-stage clash at Anfield, scoring just four minutes after being substituted on in a narrow 4-3 defeat. However, he could not replicate this feat in the return match in Austria, where Salzburg fell 2-0.
After transferring to Borussia Dortmund and later joining Manchester City in the summer of 2022, Haaland has found it challenging to deliver consistent performances against Liverpool.
His only triumph over the Reds came in December 2022 during the EFL Cup fourth round. In that match, Haaland opened the scoring, helping Manchester City secure a 3-2 victory at the Etihad Stadium.
Haaland’s first outing against Liverpool as a City player, in the 2022-23 Community Shield, ended in frustration. Pep Guardiola’s side lost 3-1 at the King Power Stadium, with Haaland missing a late opportunity to score.

At Anfield, Haaland remains winless and goalless, recording one draw and one loss as a City player. However, he did find the back of the net during a 1-1 draw against Liverpool at the Etihad Stadium in Nov
ember 2023.
