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.
Antony offered a glimmer of hope for the visitors in the second half as he curled home a great effort, but it would be Haaland's day as he notched his hat-trick shortly after. Unsurprisingly, City fans have gone wild for the 22-year-old on social media. Here is what they have had to say.

The fight back. is good. Remember you cannot compare Man City and Man U. Man City is far above many clubs in EPL right now. It was a good Derby for one of the Manchester Clubs. Congratulations to Man City. They deserve to win. United Fans, this is not time to blame anyone, I was afraid it may be the. a repeat of 2011, (6:1) but the guys showed up in the second half. City has it all. KDB is one of a kind, Haaland is out of this world, he has honoured his Daddy's time at Man City. Foden meant business, The Keeper is equally good. The coach. is. a Master to TenHag Pep has shown. that a student is a student. Man City team is well prepared to win EPL for the next 20 years so long as. Pep is there.
