Haaland scored twice + set a record but left the field angrily: The goal machine also has "unhappy" moments

2:53am, 4 October 2025Football

In the second round of the Champions League group stage, Manchester City drew 2-2 away with Monaco. Judging from the data, it is difficult for you not to give applause to Haaland - you scored twice in the first half, scored 3 shots in front of the game and successfully competed for the top 2 times. After the game, you were elected as the official best player of the Champions League.

But as soon as the camera turned, the goal machine shook his head, frowned, and looked unhappy when he left the court. During the interview, he did not hide his emotions: "I was so angry! I didn't finish my job in the second half and didn't score a goal to end the game."

"I didn't do my job well" - goal? That was just a basic operation in the first half of the game, Haaland only touched the ball 7 times, two of which were converted into goals. He scored at the first touch, and his efficiency was ridiculously high. But in his eyes, this is just a "basic operation".

When the reporter asked him "whether the outside world underestimated the difficulty of such efficient goals", he calmly responded: "I can participate in the game by running and creating space for my teammates, not just touching the ball. I finished the work in the first half, but not in the second half."

Listen, he did not indulge in "scoring twice", but repeatedly emphasized "not ending the game" and "not worthy of winning."

This almost paranoid sense of responsibility makes him look particularly alternative in the stars' shining Champions League.

50 Champions League games scored 52 goals! He scored goals by himself, surpassing 9 Champions League teams

Although Haaland is dissatisfied with himself, the data will not lie: in the first 50 games of his Champions League career, he scored 52 goals, exceeding the total number of goals scored by 9 teams including Dynamo Zagreb, Anderlecht, Lille in the Champions League during the same period!

At the same time, he tied Salah and ranked among the top ten scorers in the Champions League history, with legends such as Ronaldo, Messi, and Lewandowski.

What's even more terrifying is that he has scored 8 consecutive games for the club and the national team, scoring a total of 15 goals. The last time he didn't score, it was on August 23...

is not talent, but also a kind of obsession

This is Haaland: a forward who will be angry after scoring twice because of "not scoring the third goal"; a killer who puts "team wins" above "personal record".

He is like a programmed goal robot, but he has the most human emotions - unwillingness and self-blame. Perhaps as he said, "We have to do better." When others were amazed at his statistics, he had already set his sights on the next goal and the next victory.

Conclusion:

Haland's dissatisfaction is precisely his most terrifying thing. He not only scored goals with his feet, but also played with his mind and heart.

When the goal becomes "justified", you will understand - why he is Haaland and others are not.
