Erling Haaland Scores Twice, Highlighted By Acrobatic Goal in Borussia Dortmund Win

Akin to Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, Borussia Dortmund forward Erling Haaland is making his case to be must-watch TV anytime he takes the field.

The 21-year-old phenom scored one of the most memorable goals of his meteoric career in the 83rd minute of a 4–2 win over Union Berlin. After a chasing down a long pass launched from the backline, Haaland muscled away his defender at the edge of the penalty area and leapt at the bouncing chance.

Contorting his body to meet the ball, Haaland lobbed a looping shot over veteran Union goalkeeper Andreas Luthe to a stunned home crowd that the forward met with a point to the sky.
