Fan Talk: Erling Haaland Scored the Same Goal as Shido in Blue Lock

Champions League, Erling Haaland, Manchester City

Erling Haaland showed off his insane flexibility by scoring an acrobatic scorpion kick against Sparta Prague in the UEFA Champions League.

The goal has bamboozled both his Manchester City teammates and fans, with the large Norwegian showing crazy reflexes for his size.

The 21-year-old’s heroics were similar to a character straight from the popular Anime Blue Lock.

The anime depicts a fictional universe where the Japan team plays some crazy acrobatic football.

Haaland’s goal against Prague has been compared to one of the insane goals shown in Blue Lock.

He’s been likened to the Blue Lock character ‘Shidou’, who scored an amazing no-look backheel goal in one of the episodes.
