‘Hollan League No. 35 + Recapture of the leader’… Man City, 3-0 defeat against West Ham → 9 consecutive wins in the league

 Manchester City re-emerged to the top of the league by capturing West Ham with the performance of Elling Haalan, who broke the record for the most goals in a single season in the Premier League. 

Man City won 3-0 in a home game against West Ham United in the 2022/23 season Premier League held at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester, England on the 4th (Korean time). 

With this victory, Man City, who succeeded in winning 9 consecutive league victories, gained 79 points and recaptured the 1st place, beating second place Arsenal (78 points), who played one more game. 

Man City is in a situation where they can confirm the championship on their own if they win all the remaining matches. 

With the two teams finishing the first half without scoring, the second half was a show of Man City’s firepower. 

In the 5th minute of the second half, Riyad Mahrez’s cross from a free kick was pushed into Nathan Ake’s header to score the opening goal. 

In the 25th minute of the second half, Hollan, who received a pass from Grealish, broke through the defender and scored an additional goal by cutting West Ham’s net with a shot that exceeded the goalkeeper’s key. 

Hollan scored 35 goals in the league alone with the goal that day, which is the most goals in a single season in the Premier League.

The previous record of 34 goals, set by Andy Cole in 1993/94 and Alan Shearer in 1994/95, was broken by Hollan with five league games remaining. 

Even the preceding two players are records set at the time when the number of games per team was 42 before the Premier League was reorganized into a 38-game system. 

Hollan is recording 51 official goals this season, including the league, which is a record that surpasses the previous Premier League player’s most goals in a season in an official game. 메이저사이트

Previously, Ruud van Nistelrooy secured the top spot with 44 goals for Manchester United in 2002/03 and Mohamed Salah for Liverpool in 2017/18.

Prior to the reorganization of the Premier League, Dixie Dean scored 63 goals for an English club in 1928. If Haalan adds only 13 goals in the remaining schedule, he can even surpass that record.

Even after Haalan’s goal, Man City finished off a sweeping victory with Phil Foden scoring an additional goal in the 40th minute of the second half. 

Man City, who took the lead again with tremendous performance, will challenge Sam Allardyce’s newly appointed Leeds United to a 10-game winning streak on the 6th at 11:00 pm.
