Manchester City's star striker Erling Haaland appeared in a press statement following the 2-1 victory over Arsenal in the top match of the 33rd round of the English Premier League, in the encounter that took place at the Etihad Stadium.

The Norwegian star said in his speech: "Honestly, I was extremely happy. It was a wonderful moment for me and a great victory."

Regarding his competition with Gabriel: "I think things always go this way, with lots of competition and struggles. It's up to others to decide whether I won that competition or not. I scored the goal, so I won at that moment. It was a great goal, a decisive moment, and we won."

Regarding Bernardo Silva: "I remember that cross, when he cleared it with his head, I told him he was like Cannavaro today. I won't exaggerate my reaction, but Silva, you were amazing as always."

Regarding the competition for the title: "I believe every match is like a final. On Wednesday, we have a new final. After our discussion here ends, we will focus on recovery and preparation for the Burnley match. This match is just as important as this one and the previous match against Chelsea."

Regarding whether Gabriel should have been sent off after the altercation between them: "I think if I had fallen to the ground, which I wouldn't do unless I was subjected to a violent tackle, it might have been a red card, I'm not sure. But that's what happened, I won't fall to the ground. As for me, I deserved a yellow card, I don't know why, he got too close to me. But that's what happened."
