The 5ft 10in Danish midfielder was brushed aside by the 6ft 5in Norwegian striker, who met Kevin de Bruyne's corner to score despite Tyrell Malacia's best efforts to clear off the line. After Haaland had skirted around Eriksen, both Scott McTominay and Diogo Dalot were unable to jump high enough to prevent him making a firm contact.
