Erling Haaland scores four in Manchester City’s 5-1 win over Wolves: Guardiola urges team to secure fourth consecutive title

Erling Haaland’s four-goal performance in Manchester City’s 5-1 victory over Wolves has reignited the team’s hopes of securing a fourth consecutive Premier League title. The striker, who had been sidelined with a foot injury for nearly two months, showcased his prowess with a first-half hat-trick that included two penalties, followed by a stunning fourth goal in the second half.

Manager Pep Guardiola praised Haaland’s performance, stating that the striker is “back to business” and highlighting the quality of his goals. With City now just one point behind Arsenal in the title race, Guardiola emphasized the importance of winning their remaining three games to secure the championship.

Despite Haaland’s impressive display, he was visibly frustrated at being substituted late in the game. Guardiola acknowledged his striker’s emotions, attributing it to a contentious decision by the referee. Haaland, on the other hand, remained focused on the team’s goals, expressing gratitude for his teammates’ support and looking ahead to the upcoming fixtures.

The match was not without controversy, as Wolves manager Gary O’Neil criticized the referee’s decision to award City’s first penalty. However, the spotlight remained on Haaland’s exceptional performance, with fans eagerly anticipating the team’s next game against Fulham.

As the season nears its conclusion, all eyes will be on Manchester City as they strive to secure another title under Guardiola’s leadership and Haaland’s goal-scoring prowess.
