Nothing like flying over a little derby to get adopted.
Well, Erling Haaland didn't really need it, with already a pig ratio in the Premier League since his arrival last summer (11 goals in 7 games), but after his demonstration this Sunday during the clash between Manchester City and Manchester United, there is no longer any doubt.
The Norwegian destroyed the great rival with a hat-trick scored in just an hour of play, then leaving Phil Foden to join the party by also scoring three times.
Final score, 6-3 in this 188th fiery derby.
Martial's double scored at the very end of the match may make the mark a bit lighter for the Red Devils, but it does not deceive anyone.
City were ten feet above United, with a first half that sometimes turned sublime, like De Bruyne's pass for Haaland's second goal.
No respite for Haaland đČ

In the standings, City follows the frantic pace imposed by Arsenal, winner of another derby on Saturday, that of London, against Tottenham (3-1).
Pep's men stick to the Basques of the Gunners, a small point behind.
United, who have already lost three times in seven days, will have to whip to avoid finding themselves irretrievably off the hook.
