  The one he scored off from KDB hitting the bar was some serious leg work by Haaland.
  
  Chased the keeper down, made his kick not great. Ball came back up top, he headed it back to Kev, immediately turned and ran towards goal & was the first to anticipate any rebound.
  
  None of they was easy, he really worked for that one.
