The last time

Erling Haaland scored his tenth hat-trick for City as we beat Ipswich 3-1 in our last match.

The Tractor Boys took the lead after just seven minutes before the Norwegian scored twice, aided by some calm finishing from Kevin De Bruyne, which helped us quickly make up ground and tip the balance in the visitors’ favour.

Haaland sealed the cake with a superb, accurate finish late in the match, taking his tally to 23 hat-tricks for his career.
