Scoring a hat-trick is quite a feat. Scoring a hat-trick in three consecutive home games – that’s incredible. There must be some kind of a recipe for it, apart from talent, hard work, fortune, etc. If you ask one of the best strikers of today and probably of the future – the answer would be lasagna. Yes, that makes sen… Wait, what?!With his 18 goals in 13 league games, the Norwegian star Erling Haaland has taken England by storm in his first six months at City. For a while during the autumn, the 22-year-old was completely unstoppable. In the period from August 21 to October 8, he found the net in seven straight league games.This period included, among other things, three straight hat-tricks on home turf. The attacking star, who has made himself known for being meticulous about his diet, talks about the “secret” behind the crazy weeks – namely father Alf-Inge’s lasagna.”I will tell you an honest thing. One day my father made me some lasagna to eat and I ate it. The next day I scored a hat trick. What should we do next? He did it again for the next home game – another hat-trick. Okay, then I have to eat it for the rest of my life. I’m glad he made it. He made it with love. You can call it hat-trick lasagna.” said Haaland in Viaplay’s long interview “Haaland Conquers England”.Haaland on his 3 consecutive hat-tricks with City: “One day my father made me some lasagna to eat.The next day: I scored Hat-trick.We did the same thing the next game: hat-trick.So I have to eat this for the rest of my life. We can call it the hat-trick lasagna”🤣🤣🤣🤣 pic.twitter.com/DELmvoRU6e— Football Factly (@FootballFactly) December 20, 2022 In parallel with the football World Cup taking place in Qatar, the Premier League’s superior scorer has been able to recharge his batteries in peace and quiet with a little holiday in Marbella followed by training camp with Manchester City in Dubai.”The break was very good for me. I’m done and ready for the second part of the season, fully charged and ready to ride again. It will be nice”.In the interview with Viaplay, the Norwegian also takes the opportunity to pay tribute to Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who is approaching his comeback in AC Milan after his knee injury. In the recent past, you could come across labels such as Haaland being Zlatan 2.0 and such.”He has done many good things. His mentality to come from nowhere in Malmö and work hard, he is fantastic. To be as big as he is and be as flexible. His mentality is perhaps the best ever seen in football.” said the Norwegian about the Swede.##NAJAVA_MECA_6900579##As a three-goal scorer, the tradition is that the player gets the ball home and then has it signed by his teammates. In total, Haaland has won twelve hat-trick balls since he left Molde for Salzburg.”The feeling of getting a new hat-trick ball, it’s the best feeling in the world. It’s crazy, but I haven’t thought much about it”The Premier League restarts for Manchester City when they face Leeds away on Wednesday, December 28.
