PORTO — Jamie Carragher has declared Erling Haaland will become the greatest goalscorer of all time following his brace in Manchester City’s 2-0 Champions League victory over Porto. The Norwegian striker netted both goals in the away clash, continuing his prolific form for Pep Guardiola’s side.
Haaland opened the scoring with a powerful finish and doubled City’s lead later in the match, showcasing his clinical edge in front of goal. His performance helped secure a crucial three points for City in Group G, maintaining their strong start to the Champions League campaign.
Carragher praised Haaland’s consistency and efficiency, noting that his ability to convert chances at an unprecedented rate sets him apart from previous generations of strikers. The former Liverpool defender emphasized that Haaland’s physicality, positioning, and finishing make him uniquely suited to break long-standing scoring records.
With Haaland now among the top scorers in Europe’s elite competition, City’s attacking depth and tactical flexibility are being tested. His continued dominance could shape Manchester City’s title ambitions across domestic and European fronts.
