In the previous match for Manchester City, Haaland had an unusual performance where he failed to score, and the team lost 2-1 to Wolves.

Although the Norwegian player has already netted eight goals in just seven Premier League games this season, he has missed some scoring opportunities since the new campaign began.

When asked about Haaland’s occasional lack of accuracy in front of the goal, Guardiola expressed no concerns.

Guardiola mentioned that “He had a lot of chances to score the goals. It gets more difficult with five defenders, on the 18 yard box, there but not just for him for any player around the world.” Guardiola also pointed out “If you see the chances he’s had and the goals he’s scored he’s at the same level as last season.”

During his debut season at Manchester City, Haaland set a record by scoring 52 goals as the team achieved a treble. Although replicating those remarkable numbers this season will be challenging, few would doubt Haaland’s ability to once again lead the goal-scoring charts.

Haaland will be aiming to regain his scoring form in the upcoming Champions League match against RB Leipzig on Wednesday. Notably, he scored five goals in their previous encounter in Europe’s top competition back in March.
