Erling Haaland displayed an out of this world performance in the FA cup clash against Luton Town putting five goals past Luton’s shot stopper to take Manchester city to the Quarter finals.

The 23-year-old Norwegian scored his eighth hat trick for the club and also became the first player to score five in a game twice for Manchester City.

The defending champions opened that scoring three minutes into the match when Haaland converted a Kevin De Bruyne’s assist.

Haaland’s first four goals at Kenilworth Road were all assisted by Kevin De Bruyne.

Mateo Kovacic scored City’s sixth in a victory which keeps Pep Guardiola’s side on course to repeat last season’s treble with City a point off Premier League leaders Liverpool, while they are set to reach the Champions League quarter-finals.

Despite City racing into a 3-0 lead, Luton threatened an incredible comeback as Jordan Clark scored twice to make it 3-2, including a stunning first goal from outside the box which was the pick of the eight goals.

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola says Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne are perfect for each other after their starring roles in the 6-2 win over Luton Town.

“I think Erling needs a guy with the vision, the quality and generosity,” the boss said. “Kevin is a less selfish player in front of the goal, and if he could have helped him score another one, he would do it.

“And Kevin needs the movement from Erling but of course, we know how aggressive they are”. Stated Guardiola.
