In doing so, he set a new record for most goals in a single Premier League season, eclipsing the 34 from Shearer in 1994/95 and Andy Cole in 1993/94.

After Haaland’s 35th league goal, Gary Lineker tweeted: “A Premier League record for @ErlingHaaland. 35 goals. That’s nuts.

“Thoughts are with @alanshearer at this difficult time.”

In response, Shearer replied: “Couldn’t have wanted it to go to a nicer guy. It’s only taken 28 years!!!! He’s the best 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻.”

And fans were loving Richards’ jovial prodding of Shearer.

One said: “😂😂 Micah violated him 😂😂😂😂.”

Another added: “Odds on Alan coming out of retirement next season?!”

And a third replied: “Cracker 😂😂😂.”

Haaland has scored his 35 Premier League goals in just 31 games this season.

He still has five matches remaining to add to his remarkable record.

And he also has his sights set on Dixie Dean’s single-season record of 63 goals in all competitions in England.

Haaland is on 51 and will have to score 13 in Man City’s final eight games if he is to break the 95-year-old landmark.
