Delighted how Haaland has settled - Pep

Erling Haaland continued his free-scoring start to life at Manchester City with two more goals in a 4-0 win over Sevilla in Champions League Group G on Tuesday.

The Norwegian has now scored 12 goals in seven competitive games for City since joining the club from Borussia Dortmund during the close-season.

The blond striker put City ahead in the 20th minute, stretching to reach a cross from Kevin De Bruyne and place it past Sevilla keeper Yassine Bounou.

Phil Foden made it 2-0 after the break, jinking and turning to create space on the edge of the box before placing the ball into the bottom corner.

Haaland then made sure of a comfortable victory, pouncing to tap-in after Bounou had pushed out a low drive from the impressive Foden and then defender Ruben Dias added the fourth in stoppage time, turning in a low cross from Joao Cancelo.

Follow all the action as Man City travel to Sevilla in the Champions League group stages:

Dinamo Zagreb 1-0 Chelsea

34 mins: Nothing has worked for Chelsea since they went behind. The goal has completely freed up Dinamo Zagreb who look like the more in control side at present in spite of Chelsea dominance in possession.

Dinamo Zagreb 1-0 Chelsea

31 mins: Save! When Dinamo have gotten up the pitch in this half they’ve thrown men up there to provide options before sprinting back to reshape the defence.

Arijan Ademi receives the ball on the inside right channel just outside the box. His first touch allows the ball to bounce up nicely and he drills a shot at goal forcing Kepa Arrizabalaga into a sharp save to his right.

Dinamo Zagreb 1-0 Chelsea

28 mins: Close! Orsic flicks a Dinamo free kick into the box for Petkovic who chests the ball down and backheels it into the path of Orsic who has driven into the box.

He takes a touch to roll the ball onot his right foot before curling an effort wide of the far post!

Dinamo Zagreb 1-0 Chelsea

25 mins: Chelsea continue to sweep up the pitch but the quality isn’t there in the final third... yet.

Mateo Kovacic slides the ball wide to Reece James and his cross is blocked by the first defender and rebounds out for a throw in. James himself takes it but he’s flagged offside when the ball is knocked back to him and the attacked breaks down.

Dinamo Zagreb 1-0 Chelsea

16 mins: Chelsea look to respond immediately and win a corner on the left hand side. Ben Chilwell delivers it into the box but Dino Peric leaps in front of Kalidu Koulibaly and heads it over to Robert Ljubicic.

Ljubicic looks to turn and run the ball out of danger but he’s hit from behind by Raheem Sterling who bundles him to ground and gives away a free kick.

GOAL! Dinamo Zagreb 1-0 Chelsea (13’, Orsic)⚽️

13 mins: Dinamo Zagreb take the lead! It’s massively against the run of play but the home side get the better of Chelsea on the counter-attack.

A long ball is booted up to Bruno Petkovic who flicks the ball on to Mislav Orsic. Orsic nods the ball past Wesley Fofana and sprints past the centre-back to carry the ball into the box.

Kepa Arrizabalaga flies out and tries to close down the striker but he pokes the ball past the goalkeeper and watches as it rolls over the line.

Dinamo Zagreb 0-0 Chelsea

12 mins: Mason Mount shimmies his way down the right wing before coming inside and lifting a cross into the middle towards Raheem Sterling.

Stefan Ristovski is there to rise above the forward and head it clear.

Dinamo Zagreb 0-0 Chelsea

9 mins: Close! Chelsea’s front three are linking up brilliantly. Raheem Sterling brings the ball down the left side before drifting into a more central area as Kai Havertz comes forward on an overlapping run.

Sterling slots him the ball and he squares it into the six-yard box for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Aubameyang is caught on his heels and his lunge towards the ball doesn’t reach allowing it safely through the box where Dinamo clear the lines.
