“On the threshold of history” Holland, PL 34 goal exploded… shoulder to shoulder with Shearer-Cole
Elling Holland scored his 34th 크크크벳goal, tying the record for the most goals in the English Premier League (EPL).
Manchester City is fighting Fulham 1-1 in the 34th round of the EPL in the 2022-23 season, which is being held at Kraben Cottage in London, England on the 30th at 10:00 pm (Korean time).
Manchester City used a 3-2-4-1 formation. Haaland, Grealish, Gundogan, Alvarez, Mahrez, Rodri, Stones, Akanji, Dias, Walker and Ederson started.
Fulham faced off with a 4-2-3-1 formation. Vinicius, Reid, Pereira, Wilson, Palinha, Reed, Robinson, Lim, Adarabaioyo, Tet, and Leno scrambled.
Man City laughed early. In the 2nd minute of the first half, Grealish’s cross was not caught by Mahrez on the other side and he immediately gave it a cutback. In the process of catching it, Alvarez obtained a foul from the opposing defense. The referee immediately declared a penalty kick (PK), and Haaland took the lead as a kicker.
With this, Haaland scored his 34th league goal this season alone. It is the 50th goal in all competitions this season. It is possible to break the record for the most goals in a single EPL season.
So far, the record for the most goals in a single EPL season is 34 goals recorded by Andy Cole in the 1993-94 season and Alan Shearer in the 1994-15 season, who played 42 games. After the change to 38 games, Salah scored 32 goals in the 2017-18 season, but could not exceed the 34 goal mark.
As Holland stands shoulder to shoulder with Shearer and Cole, the possibility of writing a new history in the EPL has increased. EPL’s official SNS also congratulated his 34th goal in the league, saying, “On the threshold of history. Haaland has now tied the record for the most goals in an EPL season.”
Meanwhile, Manchester City equalized the score with a left-footed volley shot by Vinicius, who caught the ball from Wilson in the 15th minute of the first half.
