Erling Haaland

He literally did. I'm broadcasting the exact scene right now and the only big blonde dude with a number 9 shirt on the pitch that just dispossessed Fernando 15 seconds before the goal is called Erling Haaland. He won the ball, forced Sevilla back and they ran into a pressing trap, and then finishes it too.

mate, you are on a wrong path. Morten mistakenly told us about his first goal - haaland didn't press anyone on that. or are you alluding to something that happened way before sevilla tried to exit their defense? that has nothing to do with what followed.

I'm alluding to Haaland dispossessing Fernando 15 seconds before the goal and forcing Sevilla disorganized back to their own goal where Dortmunds pressing sheme came underway. Open a stream, jump to 34:15, watch the scene and tell me he didn't do that. Or tell me how I can export from DAZN and then I'll post it here.

:lol: what next? haaland looked menacing on the tunnel before game started and that triggered the whole 1-0 attacking phase?

sevilla were in possession, they could have exited their own half differently, they could have hoofed the ball up field or out in the stands. haaland had nothing to do with them fucking up like amateurs or haaland colleagues successfully taking advantage of that and setting up the norwegian to score unchallenged in the box.

Dortmund went from defending Sevilla players playing Rondo in their own box, to being 5v4 against the ball in Sevillas third, thanks to Haaland.
How does that not have anything to do with the goal immeditely resulting from that?

i you want to see it like that, be my guest... i see it as clutching at straws a bit. and its not even the point Morten was trying to make initially

sevilla had the ball and could have done things differently. that was prior to dortmund stealing the ball from them and counterattacking(on which haaland didn't actively contribute).

making that goal about haaland's genius cannot be the case, even if he pressed 15s before sevilla royally fucks it up.

They didn't counter attack. They won the ball in Sevillas own third. That's a simple pressing turnover instigated by Haaland forcing Sevilla into a shitty situation to play the ball out.

Yes we can absolutely see it like that which is the whole reason why I'm pointing this scene out, because football isn't just step overs and lob passes. 40-60% of each game is happening against the ball, so it makes a difference playing there with 11 men, or with 10 men.

haaland has the force in him. i get it now. :lol:

so haaland pressed them because he saw 10 moves in advance how the whole situation will pan out. even foresaw sevilla doing what they did.

1. Morten comes in here and showers praise for haaland's first goal, as something not many strikers can do
2. i reply to him that he had nothing to do with dortmund dispossessing the sevilla guys and starting the attack
3. he then concedes that he mistakenly tought about the haaland's second goal actually - which was disallowed anyway
4. you then continue to bang on that it was actually haaland that generated the whole situation as if his genius has seen the play in his head and acted on a script. even though he had no influence over what his colleagues did to steal the ball and start the attack
5. what the fuck are we talking about here?

More like Sevilla gifted Dortmund the first goal. That goal is 90% of Haaland teammates.

I am talking about the first goal to which you said all he supposedly did was stand in the center. Why is your exchange with Morten relevant to me, do I look like his agent?

He was in Sevilla penalty box, he is a striker after all. Then Sevilla made a mistake, his teammates took the ball then Reus passed it to him then he scored. A normal goal from a striker.

that's what he did. he looked at sevilla fucking up and his colleagues doing the whole attacking play. he then runs in the middle and scores unchallenged.

you on the other hand want to make the whole play about him and how he masterfully pegged back sevilla, forcing them to do some stupid shit.

Sevilla made 2 mistakes, one of them was loosing the ball to Haaland. The 2nd mistake resulted from that.

Yes because that's actually how you'd see it if you were the coach of a team, and not Malvolio shitposting on Barcaforum.
