Haaland’s Support and Friendship with Julián Álvarez Shines in Manchester Classic Victory

Erling Haaland’s harangue to Julián Álvarez in the Manchester classic

Manchester City beat Manchester United 3-1 in the city classic and is fighting neck and neck with Liverpool for the Premier League crown. The Citizens, who moved within one point of the top, began losing 1-0 due to Marcus Rashford’s goal, but then reversed the score thanks to the achievements of Phil Foden (in duplicate) and Erling Haaland. It was not an easy undertaking for the winner, who was only able to take advantage ten minutes into the epilogue. And in the play that broke parity, Julián Álvarez was the protagonist.

The 24-year-old Argentine striker came on moments after Jeremy Doku’s equalizer. And he floated along the entire front of attack, behind Haaland’s position, to unbalance or even assist, as ended up happening. La Araña received in the attack zone, visualized Foden’s inside attack, and left him one-on-one so that he could finish from below and make it 2-1.

Almost the entire squad hugged on one of the sides with the British fantasista as the center, but the Android looked for whoever led to the conquest. And he surprised him with a shout in Spanish. “Julián, come on,” he told him, before congratulating him on his participation. Then, it was Erling himself who closed the victory, with a finish with the inside edge of his left boot, after a robbery by the Spanish Rodri.

Since they met in Manchester, and although at some point they compete for the same position (although Julián’s versatility allows them to play together), Álvarez and Haaland tuned in and forged a friendship. “He is incredible, he is visible to everyone, in all these years he has scored many goals in all the teams he was in, in his national team as well. There is no need to talk about the skills he has on the court. What I can say from the outside is that he is a great guy, a great person, very nice. He helps me, and he has helped me, he is always available for whatever it may be. That’s very good, I appreciate it. He makes me very happy with his present and everything he has achieved,” said the former River in an interview with ESPN.

The bond extended beyond the limits of the playing field, to the point that they were baptized “Haalvarez” on social media. On Instagram you could see the friendship that Emilia Ferrero and Isabel Haugseng Johansen, their partners, established, which was reflected in some videos of the Argentinean teaching her how to prepare mate. “Julián looks like Kun Agüero. Wow, I love playing with him. It’s great to play with such good teammates. I am having fun. “I’m enjoying playing football,” the former Borussia Dortmund striker praised. That synergy, as it became clear, includes Spanish classes. And Haaland, at least to celebrate the goals, shows himself as a dedicated student.
