– “It was a good feeling to get started again after six weeks without football,” Haaland said.
– “I’ve been watching a lot of City games over the last years and they’ve been without a striker so, of course, I’ve been seeing myself in these situations. I’m not surprised I scored.
– “It’s good. I have to say the first time winning against Bayern, it was about time after seven losses in a row.
– “To beat Bayern feels good and the quality is good. It was a real test before Liverpool in a week.
– “I don’t want to speak too much about Dortmund but Guardiola is a bit crazy – and I like that.
