Haaland's dominant performance served as a stark warning to Manchester City's rivals, emphasizing their unwavering focus on their title pursuit.
Haaland's remarkable goal-scoring spree guided the champions to a commanding 5-1 win at the Etihad Stadium, maintaining their pursuit of an unprecedented fourth consecutive Premier League title.
The victory was particularly crucial following Arsenal's triumph over Bournemouth earlier in the day, keeping City within striking distance of the Gunners, who have played one more game, with just three fixtures remaining.
Reflecting on his exceptional performance, Haaland expressed satisfaction with the win and his four-goal haul, acknowledging the challenge posed by Wolves' resilient play.
He emphasized City's collective determination, stating, "We're on a mission." Looking ahead, Haaland urged his teammates to maintain their focus and determination as they approach the next match.
City will have the opportunity to claim the top spot when they face Fulham in their upcoming fixture. With matches against Tottenham and West Ham to follow, City's formidable form and depth of experience in title races make them a formidable opponent for Arsenal.
Under Pep Guardiola's guidance, City remain unbeaten in 20 Premier League matches, with 16 victories highlighting their dominance.
Haaland's return to peak form further enhances City's prospects, with his first-half hat-trick against Wolves demonstrating his clinical prowess.
Despite Wolves managing to pull one goal back, Haaland swiftly responded with another spectacular strike, underlining City's superiority. Substitute Julian Alvarez added the final flourish to City's comprehensive victory.
Wolves boss Gary O'Neil conceded that facing City at this stage of the season, with their relentless pursuit of glory, presented a daunting challenge.
He acknowledged City's formidable stature and admitted that even a flawless performance might not have been enough to thwart their title ambitions.
