'He's a scary machine' - Man City fans go wild as Erling Haaland destroys Manchester United

Manchester City fans have been going wild for Erling Haaland after the Norwegian striker notched a hat-trick in the derby clash with Manchester United.

City took the lead in the early stages as Phil Foden fired home a Bernardo Silva cross. City extended their lead 30 minutes later as Haaland was found by Kevin De Bruyne before firing a header past David de Gea.

It was three to the Blues just moments later as superb play from De Bruyne saw him pick out the ideal pass for Haaland who slid home to send the City fans wild. Just before added time in the first half, Pep Guardiola's side cut through United once again as Foden tapped home at the back post to complete the first-half demolition.
