However, his second appearance got fans talking for an unusual reason.
After Julian Alvarez sent the ball over the goal, Haaland threw himself on it and tried to direct it towards the goal.
But instead of scoring with his foot, the striker did so with his backside.
And after a quick VAR check for a possible handball, the goal was scored.
Stunned fans took to social media to react to Haaland’s goal. One person wrote: “Haaland scored a goal with his buttocks 😂😭.”
While another joked: “What a goal from Haaland’s ass.”
Former Top Gear presenter Clarkson also chimed in with a strange comment, writing: “Harland hit that with his anus.”
Daniel Sturridg in the Sky studio confirmed that “he hit that with his cheeks”.
His remark sparked mixed reactions from some football fans.
However, others joked about it.
One person quipped: “No ands, ifs and buts.”
And another wrote: “Who got the ASSist?”
In a separate tweet, broadcaster Mike Parry also commented: “This is the first goal ever scored with the backside in the Prem League. It was stunning.”
After two late goals from Rodri and Cole Palmer, the points were shared in a 4-4 draw.
