It was a poacher’s finish. He can score a variety of goals and a WC winner patch looks beautiful on that shirt.
This is how Haaland managed to score so many goals last year. Any good striker with good positioning can score many goals with City team and Alvarez wasn’t exactly playing as a no9 the whole match.
