Pep Guardiola explained why he denied Erling Haaland the chance to score a double hat-trick for Manchester City in the Champions League.

The Norwegian striker was at his brilliant best against RB Leipzig in the Champions League as he scored five in Manchester City's 7-0 win to ease them into the quarter-finals. He became the third player to score five goals in a Champions League fixture after Lionel Messi (for Barcelona against Bayer Leverkusen) and Luiz Adriano (for Shakhtar Donetsk against Bate Borisov).

However, Guardiola took him off in the 63rd minute and introduced Julian Alvarez, which prevented the striker from chasing a historic double hat-trick.
