Erling Haaland equalled the Premier League’s single-season goal record as the Manchester City striker netted for the 34th time this term in Sunday’s clash with Fulham.

Haaland converted a third minute penalty at Craven Cottage to move level with Alan Shearer and Andy Cole’s single-season Premier League record total.
