Rémy Ngono, the Cameroonian sports journalist working for RFI on the show Café des Sports, has been very critical of Erling Haaland.
The specialist in “African proverbs” on the French radio is not convinced by the Norwegian’s ability to perform in big games.
According to the journalist, the former Borussia Dortmund striker merely stomps on smaller teams, and when it comes to the big ones, he hides.
Additionally, Rémy Ngono criticizes the fact that Erling Haaland is consistently absent during his team’s big matches.
As evidence, he points to Haaland’s statistics in the 5 finals his Manchester City team has played in recent months.
In 5 finals, whether in the Champions League, the FA Cup, or the Super Cup, the cyborg has not scored any goals. On May 25, 2024, he remained silent again when his team needed him during the FA Cup final to equalize and prevent Manchester United’s rivals from lifting the trophy.
“So here are the statistics of the giant volleyball attacker presented as a great successor to Cristiano Ronaldo and future Ballon d’Or winner: Erling Haaland, 5 finals, 0 goals, 0 assists.
It is also worth noting that in the last 4 Champions League matches against Real Madrid, Erling Haaland did not find the net.
But when it comes to smaller clubs like Luton, he inflicts a thrashing with a five-goal haul in 5 minutes,” explained Rémy Ngono.
