Champions League: Pep Guardiola compares Erling Haaland goal to Johan Cruyff
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola compared Erling Haaland to Johan Cruyff after he volleyed a late winner against Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday, 14 September.
Haaland scored with six minutes remaining of a tight Champions League clash against his old football club at the Etihad Stadium, completing a late City comeback to snatch a 2-1 victory.
