LONDON (AP) — Make it 91 goals in 100 games for Erling Haaland at Manchester City.

The striker marked his 100th appearance for the club by netting the first goal in a 2-0 win at Chelsea on Sunday as City began its campaign for a fifth straight Premier League title.

It also took his tally to five goals in three league openers since joining City in 2022 and showed that the Norwegian is fully rested after a summer without international soccer.

“I had a feeling that he feels better than last season at this stage,” City manager Pep Guardiola said. “He feels good, and the goal was magnificent.”
