And that happened on Sunday night (November 16), against an Italy that is a 'monster' of world football. Right on the opponent's field, Haaland and the Norwegian team made the home team suffer a heavy 1-4 defeat, in which the Man City striker scored a double in just... 1 minute.

With these two goals, Haaland has 55 goals for the Norwegian national team after only 48 matches. That number becomes more spectacular when compared to Mbappe's achievement with the French national team - also 55 goals, but the Real Madrid star needed 94 matches, which is almost double the number of matches.

Or compared to Wayne Rooney (53 goals), Haaland currently has 2 more goals and has played 72 fewer matches than the former England striker!

Haaland's other statistics continue to make people amazed, as if he really is... a robot.

Specifically, Haaland leads the scoring list of the 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign with 16 goals after 8 matches. He currently has 32 goals for Man City and the Norwegian national team this season, with 19 matches played...
