Norwegian Erling Haaland took just over three minutes to score the opening goal of the Premier League season as Manchester City struck early at Burnley. Haaland scored 52 times in his debut season as City won the treble of Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup. However, the Norwegian had failed to net in his previous six City games. Haaland ended his longest drought for the club when he slotted home Rodri's header across goal after just three minutes and four seconds. For Vincent Kompany's side, Anass Zaroury was sent off in injury time, after a the video assistant referee review, for a dangerous lunge on Kyle Walker.
