Haaland returned home to Norway for stage #7 of the unique UCL group. And he went back to England humiliated. After the stinging failure with Bodo/Glimt, Erling highlighted the fantastic play of his compatriots and had a harsh speech for his City team-mates.

Haaland then finished by complaining about the large number of matches he has to play, hinting that he has medical problems, but he is forced.

Erling Haaland: “Embarrassing. We have to take responsibility, we are Manchester City”

“We lost. We narrowed the gap but got red. It's a well-deserved win for Bodo, they're playing incredible at home. In the end, I think they deserved it. We did what we could, but something's missing.

I take responsibility, together with Rodri, Gigio, Tijjani. I don't want to blame anyone, but we have to take more responsibility. It wasn't enough. We are Manchester City, we can't lose games. I have no answers, I take responsibility too, I should have scored.

I apologize to all the fans, especially those who made the trip. It's embarrassing, Bodo played incredible. Honestly, I don't know what else to say, I have no answers.

I don't want to talk about how I feel, I have to give everything when I play. I'm on the field all the time, that's because we play a ridiculous number of games. I'm trying to give everything and prepare for the next match, which is in 4 days,” Haaland said after the match, according to TNT Sports.
