And this was not a nailbiter. He did the job in 111 games — 13 games faster than record holder Alan Shearer, who scored his 100th PL goal in his 124th game.

Haaland's 15th goal of the season — the opener to put Manchester City 1-0 up away to Fulham — makes him the 35th player to score 100 goals in the Premier League era.
