Erling Haaland believes his winning goal against Borussia Dortmund is among the best he's ever scored. Manchester City maintained their undefeated streak and put themselves in a great position to qualify for the Champions League knockout stages on Wednesday by beating Dortmund 2-1 but they were made to work hard and survive yet another scare.
A resolute Dortmund knocked the Blues off their typical game and went ahead through Jude Bellingham in the second half. Going behind woke City out of their stupor, though, and John Stones dragged them level with a thunderous 25-yard drive.
Then Haaland was inevitably the hero as he acrobatically turned in Joao Cancelo's stunning cross for the win. It's a goal that the Norwegian is very pleased with.

It was a really good cross and in the end it was a really good goal, I have to say. This is one of my best goals ever, to be honest.
