(Club Brugge 0-3 Borussia Dortmund) Erling Braut Haaland (20) loves to play Champions League football. On Wednesday night, the Norwegian scoring machine scored its 13th and 14th in the tournament.
He now has as many goals in the world’s most generous club tournament as, for example, Brazilian legend Ronaldo, as well as his compatriot, the cult hero Adriano.
– It was a good night and three important points, Haaland responds in a characteristic and barely visible way in an interview shown on TV 2 after the game.

Nobody has scored as many goals in so few games as Haaland in the Champions League. 14 goals in eleven games is the Norwegian’s final score.
Now he has scored in all the matches of the 20/21 edition of the tournament:
First in the defeat against Lazio, then in the victory against Zenit – where he set a record – and on Wednesday against Club Brugge. He tops the list of top scorers along with Diogo Jota of Liverpool, Marcus Rashford of Manchester United and Álvaro Morata of Juventus.
They all have four goals so far.

“We’re not going to slow him down, don’t worry,” Sebastian Kehl told Sky.
He is a former Dortmund captain and now leads the club.
Rest before the big game
But there was no new hat trick in the Champions League for the Norwegian. Haaland was replaced as a two-goal scorer after 85 minutes, as Borussia Dortmund already take on Bayern Munich on Saturday.
Hansi Flick and company. He followed quite a bit from Munich, and I could see Erling Braut Haaland, hungry for goals.

Thorgan Hazard scored the first goal of the match, and then it was almost exclusively on Haaland.
The Norwegian scored his first goal of the night after a corner kick, and clapped as obsessed by it, and should get even more to clench his fists. Dortmund kept up with a show of timing and interaction before their second goal.

After a difficult start to life in Group F, Borussia Dortmund now reigns at the top of the group with six points, and is one point ahead of Lazio, who only managed a draw against Zenit early Wednesday.
– We knew that Bruges is a playing team, so we wanted to put in a lot of effort and show that we are a better team. We did it, Haaland sums up after the game.
– He has done well against Belgian teams, he admits, knowing that he now has six goals in three games against Belgian rivals (Genk and Club Brugge).

Huge duel of forwards
It remains to be seen how well things go on Saturday. Series leader Bayern Munich, who certainly only lead ahead of Dortmund in better goal difference, travels to Signal Iduna Park. Because if Haaland showed goal form on Wednesday, Bayern did the same on Tuesday.
They then glided over RB Salzburg and won 6-2 on Austrian turf. Then his super forward Robert Lewandowski, like Haaland, scored two goals.
The next highs’ duel between the two on Saturday will likely be absolutely decisive.
P.S! Haaland was out with a knee problem when Dortmund faced Arminia Bielefeld last weekend, but came back strong on Wednesday. He is on Lars Lagerbäck’s national team for Norway’s games against Israel, Romania and Austria in November.
