But he did so without his famed ponytail, letting down his blonde hair before firing past Aaron Ramsdale.
And fans reckon Haaland found it all “too easy” as City all-but ended Arsenal’s title-winning hopes.
One said: “The game is too easy for Haaland, he was mid-way through putting his hair in a bun before scoring that.”
Another added: “Erling Haaland literally letting his hair down for the last few second.”
One joked: “Haaland let his hair down and scores, just too easy for him.”
Another agreed: “Haaland letting his hair down, too easy.”
Even ex-England striker and BBC pundit Dion Dublin said: “Incredible player. He’s taken his Alice band out, let his hair down and made some good runs.
“He makes it look so easy. It’s a pleasure to watch him play. I’m lost for words now, he’s outstanding.”
While Gunners legend Martin Keown compared Haaland to kids’ cartoon character TARZAN.
He said on BT Sport: “He is the driving force, they had good players that need to be managed and information to take onboard.
“Haaland took time to gel but now in other gears, today he was like Tarzan on the pitch, he let his hair down at the end, now he has settled in he has let his hair down a bit and is even better.”
City closed Arsenal’s lead at the top to two points but crucially have two games in hand.
Kevin de Bruyne’s double sandwiched a John Stones header, before Rob Holding pulled one back for the Gunners.
But Haaland and City got the last laugh with his added-time strike sealing the game and possibly the season.
