  • Haaland’s goal helped Manchester City to a 2-1 win over Dortmund in the Champions League, and Bellingham made his feelings towards Haaland known after the game

Erling Haaland’s late winner for Manchester City against Borussia Dortmund left his former teammate Jude Bellingham stunned.

Then Haaland came up with the winner for Pep Guardiola’s side once again with an acrobatic finish from a Joao Cancelo cross to completely turn the game around in the dying minutes.

At full time, cameras panned onto Haaland, who had a brief engagement with his former teammate Bellingham.

The clip, which is doing rounds on social media, appears to show Bellingham mutter the phrase "f***’s sake mate" in an open show of his awe at Haaland’s magic.

Since joining Manchester City in the summer for £51m, Haaland has been in impressive form, notching in 13 goals in just nine appearances.

Bellingham also spoke to BT Sport after the game where he had nothing but praise for his former teammate.

"That shows his quality," Bellingham told BT Sport.
"He's not always in the game but you know that you give him half a sniff and he can make a goal.
"That's what he did tonight."

City are now top of Group G with six points, and will now turn their attention to the Premier League, when they face Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday, September 17.
