In Green Bay, in front of 78,128 spectators at the historic Lambeau Field, Erling Haaland made his first appearance for Manchester City this preseason and — wouldn’t you know it — scored his first goal for the club.

In Orlando, Arsenal battered a rather strong Chelsea side to the tune of 4-0. The average age of their four goal scorers? 22.5.

In Glasgow, Harry Kane bagged himself a preseason brace against Scottish giants Rangers, while Antonio Conte mixed a half-dozen new signings into the squad.

In Australia, Manchester United and Aston Villa battled to a 2-2 draw as Jadon Sancho continued his fine form this preseason, but the Red Devils conceded the equalizer late in stoppage time.

Bayern Munich were likely thrilled to see Haaland leave Borussia Dortmund and the Bundesliga this summer when he signed for Manchester City, but on Saturday night the Norwegian scored his first Man City goal in his first appearance of the preseason.

It’s already clear that Haaland, whose instincts inside the penalty area are second to none (at the age of 22), will bring a new dimension to Manchester City’s attack, with the lone goal of the game painting a perfect example. “Put the ball in the box and see what happens” is now a legitimate option for Pep Guardiola’s side.

Kevin De Bruyne recovered the ball atop the penalty area and smoothly played Jack Grealish, who also looks primed for a strong second season at the Etihad Stadium, into space and Grealish played the simple square ball across the face of goal for Haaland to slide in and tap it home.
