Haaland brings the noise! Man City striker hits hat-trick vs Wolves to ... (Goal.com)

Pep Guardiola had called for more passion from Manchester City players and fans, and got that in an Erling Haaland-inspired 3-0 victory over Wolves.

Guardiola did see his side double their lead inside five minutes of the restart as Gundogan had his heels clipped by Ruben Neves inside the box and Haaland made no mistake when sending Sa the wrong way from the penalty spot. City thought they should have had a shot at adding a second before the break, but Jack Grealish’s penalty shouts fell on deaf ears and failed to convince those in the VAR booth – with the England winger then seeing a strike cleared off the line in stoppage-time. Following a number of half-chances and ambitious efforts from distance, Haaland opened the scoring five minutes before half-time.
