During Manchester City’s match against Slovan Bratislava, Erling Haaland appeared frustrated as his teammates focused on scoring rather than creating chances for him. Despite being marked by multiple players, City players, including Phil Foden, took shots from outside the box, testing the goalkeeper and hitting the post and crossbar. Haaland finally scored in the 58th minute before being substituted by James McAtee, with Pep Guardiola explaining that he wanted to preserve the striker’s fitness due to a previous knock.
Guardiola’s decision to substitute Haaland was deemed wise, as the game was already secured with a 3-0 lead and risking Haaland’s injury could have been detrimental to the team, especially considering the absence of key players due to injuries. Haaland now has the opportunity to rest and recover ahead of the next match against Fulham, with Guardiola ensuring the striker’s well-being and satisfaction at getting back on the scoresheet after a previous goal drought.
