Erling Braut Haaland hits a hat-trick in Dortmund debut

It’s a bittersweet taste for Man United fans who were forced to enjoy Erling Braut Haaland scored a sensational hat-trick on his debut, helping Borussia Dortmund staged a comeback to beat Augsburg 5-3 on Saturday.

The 19-year-old had only joined the Bundesliga outfit three weeks ago from Red Bull Salzburg for a reported 20 million euros, after rejecting interest from Man United and Juventus.

Dortmund were surprisingly 3-1 down midway in the second half, but the introduction of Haaland changed everything.

Haaland completed his wonderful hat-trick in the 79th minute.

It’s a much-needed win for Dortmund who are now fourth in the table with 33 points, sharing the point with Bayern and Schalke.
