Sevilla-Borussia Dortmund 2-3
– It was good to score goals. I love the Champions League, and when I saw Mbappé’s hat trick yesterday, I got free motivation. So thanks to him. It was a nice night, Haaland says with a wicked smile after the game.
In May last year, Jærbuen generated a debate on Football Europe due to his short responses. Some thought it was rude.

The TV 2 soccer expert thinks a change is seen in Haaland.
– It’s wonderful in the way he responds. I also think he’s given up a bit that he should send out some stings and such about death and life. I think it’s a much better version of Erling Braut Haaland, says Simen Stamsø-Møller.
– And there’s something to that. When Mbappé scores a day, I really think it motivates him. His goal is to become the best footballer in the world. It’s not unrealistic like it’s doing now, it continues.
– I don’t see it better
Against Sevilla, in what is considered one of the toughest away games in Europe, Jærbuen first delivered a goal pass, then two goals.
The performance can be heard against a team that had kept a clean sheet in the last seven games.
– It was a good first half. In the second half we had problems, but three away goals against Sevilla is very good, Haaland tells Danish television.
– It’s the Champions League. There is always something special. I enjoy the Champions League, and now we have to be a pretext in the next game to fight Sevilla, he continues.
Besides goal points, Haaland was a constant source of discomfort.
– It always puts fear in their eyes. There is no way. This is one of the strongest defenses of the winter, and they have no chance against it, says Stamsø-Møller.
-I have not seen all their matches, but I do not remember having seen better than in the first round, he continues.
New records
Haaland now stands out with 18 incredible goals in 13 matches in the Champions League. No one has done that before him.
For Borussia Dortmund, they are with ten goals in seven games in the tournament. With that, he is the fastest to reach ten goals for the same team, and surpasses the record of forward legend Roy Makaay from the 2003/04 season, according to choose.
On the tournament’s top scorers list, he performs constant jumps. 18 goals are as many as Franck Ribéry, Ronaldinho and John Carew.
Haaland has already equaled these legends in the Champions League.
… and maybe reach forwards like Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Robert Lewandowski.
He is just one goal away from Ole Gunnar Solskjær, Norway’s top scorer.
Brede Hangeland, now part of the national team’s support team, sees the goal show as an adventure.
– It is a gift for Norwegian football and has a winning skull that is completely unique. It has the ability to flip the switch when most are involved. We saw new examples of this, Hangeland says.
– A year ago he was thought to be a reindeer scorer. Now it is much more complete. It just gets better and better, Stamsø-Møller agrees.
Hailed by Wenger and the idol
Manager legend Arséne Wenger followed Jærbu’s show like a beIN SPORTS expert. The Frenchman was very impressed with Haaland’s timing and shooting technique.
– You can’t teach it. If you could have taught that, everyone would have been a scorer, Wenger said.
Former Swansea Michu striker, one of Haaland’s role models, praised the scoring machine this way:
Tunnel and wall games
Dortmund came out crooked. Only seven minutes were played when Suso put Sevilla ahead.
Then it was time for Erling Braut Haaland. Jærbuen hit a cheeky tunnel along the sideline. He passed the ball to his teammate Mahmoud Dahoud, who certainly had a lot of work to do:
The German took out a man, before hitting the crossbar from about 20 meters.
Soon after, Haaland started up again. Jærbuen bowed his neck and lunged forward with the ball. He played wall with Jadon Sancho, before sliding the ball into goal.
Just before the break, he received the ball after a counterattack pattern. He asked in his usual splits, received a short pass from Marco Reus and scored the 3-1 at Dortmund.
Seven minutes before full time, Luuk de Jong reduced to 2-3 for the home team.
