Erling Haaland equals Premier League goal-scoring record and Kevin de Bruyne makes history of his own MCFC
De Bruyne has also completed the feat in the quickest time ever for a Premier League player, doing so in 237 matches.The second-placed player to complete the feat, Cesc Fabregas, took 298 matches to get to 100 assists.
And Haaland answered the supporters in perfect fashion, scoring his 43rd goal of the season in the process.
Kamaldeen Sulemana, who joined Saints for a club-record £22million in January, had caused City’s defence all sorts of problems. That was also his 30th Premier League goal this term, with Haaland taken off immediately after as Pep Guardiola denied him the chance to bang in his seventh hat-trick in City colours.Sekou Mara grabbed one late on for the hosts, but it was too little too late, with Southampton then shooting themselves in the foot as Kyle Walker-Peters fouled De Bruyne in the box.
