‘Monster Goalkeeper’ Elling Hollan scored his 34th goal in the English Professional Football Premier League (EPL) and set a ‘highest goal tie record in a single season’. Manchester City overtook Arsenal to lead the EPL.
Man City won 2-1 thanks to Halan and Julian Alvarez’s consecutive goals in the 2022-23 EPL away game held at Craven Cottage in London, England on the 1st (Korean time).
With this, Man City won 8 consecutive wins, the most among EPL clubs this season, and recorded 24 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses, and accumulated 76 points, bringing down Arsenal (23 wins, 6 draws, 4 losses, 75 points), which played one more game, and took the lead. got up
Manchester City rose to the top spot with a 3-1 win over Arsenal in February, but three days later they lost the lead in a 1-1 draw once morest Nottingham Forest, and then returned to the top spot following eight games.
Man City took the lead in the 3rd minute of the first half when Haalan scored from a penalty kick induced by Alvarez. After conceding an equalizer in the 15th minute of the first half, Álvarez scored the winning goal in the 36th minute with a right-footed kick from the right side of the penalty arc.
Hollan continued his scoring streak (7 goals) in 5 EPL games in a row, excluding the game he missed due to injury.
Hollan, who scored the 33rd league goal when beating Arsenal 4-1 in the previous 33rd round and broke the record of ‘the most goals in a single season in 38 EPL matches’, scored ‘the most goals (34 goals) in a single season in 42 matches’. He stood shoulder to shoulder with Andy Cole (1993-94 season) and Alan Shearer (1994-95 season).
The EPL, which was launched in 1992, had a system of 22 teams and 42 games for the first three seasons, and changed to a system of 20 teams and 38 games from the 1995-96 season.
With Manchester City still six games away, it’s only a matter of time before the record is broken. Hollan has scored 34 goals (1.13 goals per game) in 30 appearances in the regular league this season. He also scored 50 goals (1.14 goals) in 44 official games across the European Champions League and cup competitions.
According to the British BBC, the English professional soccer player who scored 50 goals in an official game in one season is the first time in 92 years since the ‘Aston Villa legend’ Thomas Waring (50 goals) in the 1930-31 season. The record for the most goals in a single season in the English professional league is 63 goals (41 games) by Dixie Dean, the “Everton legend” in the 1927-28 season.
In addition to six regular league games, Hollan can play up to 10 more games, including one FA Cup final match and up to three UCL matches, so attention is focused on how many goals Hollan can score.
