Haaland’s 11 City hat-tricks so far | OneFootball

Erling Haaland's phenomenal start to the 2024/25 season continued in City's 3-1 win over West Ham.

The Norwegian scored a fantastic hat-trick at the London Stadium in an enthralling 3-1 win for Pep Guardiola's side.

By collecting three points in the capital, it stretched our 100% start to the term to three straight matches following victories over Chelsea and Ipswich.

Haaland’s treble remarkably represented his 11th since he joined the Club in the summer of 2022 – achieving the feat in just 102 outings.

Here we take a look at each hat-trick and the numbers behind his latest incredible milestone.

FIRST

Haaland’s first City hat-trick came in another comeback – on that occasion it was against Crystal Palace as we fought from two goals down to win 4-2 at the start of the 2022/23 term.

Having trailed at the interval, the forward bagged a 19-minute treble after Bernardo Silva’s deflected effort halved the deficit shortly after half-time.

The 24-year-old headed Phil Foden’s cross home before poking John Stones’ effort into the net.

Haaland then claimed the match ball when he latched onto a precise Ilkay Gundogan pass before shrugging off Joel Ward to round off the scoring.

COMPETITIONS

Across Haaland’s 11 hat-tricks for City, it’s perhaps unsurprising that the majority of those have arrived in the Premier League.

In total, he’s scored eight in the Premier League, two in the FA Cup and one in the Champions League.

When claiming match balls, he’s scored 38 goals and has netted five times twice in wins over RB Leipzig and Luton while also scoring four in a triumph over Wolves.

CUTTING THROUGH FOREST

As the Norwegian started to dominate Premier League proceedings after his fast start to life in the competition, his second treble soon arrived during a home fixture with Nottingham Forest in August 2022.

It took him only 38 minutes to complete his hat-trick at the Etihad across 19 first-half minutes.

He broke the deadlock after a Foden cross, doubled his tally when showing his poacher’s instinct to tap home from close range before he nodded home Stones’ flick for his third.

The scoring was then completed by Joao Cancelo and Julian Alvarez as we recorded a superb 6-0 win.

PREMIER LEAGUE

Haaland is now joint-fourth in the list of all-time Premier League hat-tricks after raising his tally to eight.

He’s now matched Harry Kane, Thierry Henry and Michael Owen's totals and is only behind Robbie Fowler (nine), Alan Shearer (11) and Sergio Aguero (12).

DERBY DELIGHT

In what was his first Manchester derby, Haaland lit up the Etihad alongside Foden, both scoring hat-tricks in a 6-3 success.

The Norwegian headed to double our lead 11 minutes before the interval before he gobbled up De Bruyne’s mouth-watering cross on the cusp of the break.

Following half-time, he then slammed Sergio Gomez’s cross home to claim one of two match balls – the other going to Foden.

EVENLY SPREAD

Interestingly, the goals that make up Haaland’s hat-tricks have almost been split evenly across first and second halves.

Across his 38 goals in 11 trebles, 20 have come before half-time with 18 following the break.

TAMING WOLVES

With City relentlessly pursuing the Treble in 2022/23, his hat-trick against Wolves in January 2023's 3-0 win helped us en route to a third straight Premier League crown.

He broke the deadlock five minutes before half-time when heading De Bruyne’s cross into the net before dispatching a penalty after the break. Hs then swept the third goal home after Riyad Mahrez retrieved possession inside the box.

FOX IN THE BOX

It’s no secret Haaland is one of world football’s deadliest finishers inside the box.

This is further exemplified after 36 of his 38 goals across his 10 hat-tricks have been scored from inside the area.

His first goal within a hat-trick which was from outside the box came against Ipswich before his third against West Ham in his latest treble also arrived from range.

EUROPEAN STAGE

City’s Champions League second-leg fixture with RB Leipzig was another night to remember for Haaland when he scored a staggering five goals in a 7-0 success as we progressed to he quarter-finals.

By doing so, he became the fastest player to reach 30 goals in the competition. Lionel Messi and Brazilian Luiz Adriano are the only other players to score five goals in a Champions League fixture.

FROM THE SPOT

When claiming his 10 match balls for City so far, only six goals of his 38 have been scored from penalties.

That’s an average of just over 15% of his strikes in trebles coming from the spot.

UP FOR THE CUP

A meeting with Burnley in a 2023 FA Cup quarter-final tie saw City reunited with Vincent Kompany who was at the Clarets helm.

After even opening exchanges, Haaland bagged a hat-trick in an eventual 6-0 success. He latched onto a diagonal ball, showcasing his pace to squeeze the ball into the net for his first.

It took only three minutes until he had his second when the Norwegian lifted the ball past an onrushing Bailey Peacock-Farrell.

He then showed his poacher’s instinct for his third when the ball kissed the post from Foden’s shot and Haaland was in the right place to apply a first-time finish.

GRATEFUL EIGHT

Although he’s tied with Kane, Henry and Owen on eight Premier League hat-tricks, Haaland achieved the total across fewer games.

The Norwegian hit eight trebles in the league after 69 appearances so far, meanwhile Kane and Owen's coincidentally came across 320 respective outings and Henry's scored eight throughout 258 league showings.

STARTING STRONGLY

City made it four wins from four at the start of the 2023/24 season thanks to Haaland’s hat-trick in a 5-1 home win over Fulham.

After first-half goals from Julian Alvarez and Nathan Ake, the Norwegian struck three after the break – his first coming after he received the ball from the Argentine and provided a fine first-time finish.

He then doubled his personal tally from the penalty spot before completing his treble when slamming home Gomez’s cut-back.

ESTEEMED COMPANY

By scoring his seventh Premier League hat-trick for City, Haaland closed the gap in second to Sergio Aguero who has the most in the competition for the Club with 12.

The Norwegian now has three more than Raheem Sterling (five) – completing the top five is Carlos Tevez (four) and Foden (three).

CUP CLASS

Haaland’s incredible second five goal-haul in a match came in a 6-2 victory over Luton in the FA Cup in February 2024.

He’d already scored three before the break before adding two after the interval alongside Mateo Kovacic’s strike at Kenilworth Road.

WOLVES… AGAIN

Wolves are currently the only team Haaland has scored two hat-tricks against during his time at City so far.

In a crucial 5-1 success over Gary O’Neil’s side as we closed in on a fourth straight Premier League crown, he scored four with three arriving before half-time.

His fourth came nine minutes after the interval before Alvarez netted on 85 minutes.

TRACTOR BOYS

Haaland’s first hat-trick of the 2024/25 season came in our 4-1 win over Ipswich Town in our previous assignment.

Sammie Szmodics broke the deadlock for the visitors but the Norwegian equalised with an expert penalty, given following a review into a foul on new boy Savinho.

After the Brazilian set up De Bruyne, Haaland made it 3-1 after rounding Arijanet Muric before firing home.

Then, after the break, the 24-year-old rounded off the scoring with a classy finish from range.

LATEST

Last but certainly not least, Haaland's most recent treble came in our 3-1 win over West Ham in September.

The Norwegian opened the scoring when collecting the ball inside the box and coolly slotting home.

After the hosts' equaliser, he restored our lead when slamming into the roof of the net before half-time and finished the scoring late on with a composed finish just outside the area.
