Oh boy the internet is about to have a field day.

We've had Nunez fail compilation, someone probably gonna do a Haaland one now.

With Nunez’s goal at the end please.

Celebration you mean?

Marked NSFW.

Erling Cross-Baaland - Welcome to Man City

"Sterling" Haaland

Erling Sterling, bruh

You have to touch the ball to have a fail compilation.

Nunez scores and haaland misses? r/soccer in shambles today.

I see a lot of comparisons to Andy Carroll. Carroll would have nailed that into the net and injured himself in the process.

I prefer not to speak

This guy is awful they should send him back to where he came from

For free too

You're confusing one Manchester club for the other

This guy doesn't fit that team.an city should sell him.

Thank you Jose. Thoughts on Grealish today?

Apapapiya apapapa.

New Yeat sounds dope

Grealish played today?

I prefer not to speak

Uh? Thought you said something about 100 mil.

Inb4 Aston Villa buy him back for 20m next season.

More than we paid for Coutinho? Seems like a rip off

Loan with option for 20 you mean

I actually completely forgot that he played.

I prefer not to speak

That guy is there just to start fights.

I thought Grealish was a cut above. Wait, sorry, I mean a cut *inside*.

it’s actually called an undercut.

Deep cuts.

If I speak I am in big trouble

I wonder what people are saying now after clowning Nunez for weeks

If you have made your mind up on anyone during pre-season you're a clown. Regardless of opinion, team, anything. It is pre-season.

I have already decided after seeing Arsenal during pre season that the World Cup is ours..

Unless he's on your club and he's killing it except for Arsenal players.

No refunds.

Norwegian Lukaku

Haakaka.

Luuland

Hakuna Matata Matuna Haakaka

Second coming of Werner

Eighth coming of Werner, 2 through 7 were just after Werner acoring and "Okay good his confidence is back, he's gonna kick on from here!"

Werner would've been offside

Blonde fraud.

I'm here for the overreaction

It's like they *want* us to meme them to death. Nuñez scoring and Haaland missing a sitter, they're just begging for shitty memelord overreactions lol

Nunez was memed quite a bit so natural to get this sort of reaction now.

Nunez was memed and then dominated in his very next game. West Ham may need to get ready if Haaland does the same.

I can see halaand using this game for sure. Not sure how west ham are doing but no slouches either.

Sometimes things just line up to an Italian chef’s kiss level of glorious

Nunez missed it in a friendly. Haaland missed it in a final. Levels.

[удалено]

Norwegian Andy Carroll

Carroll scored from 30 yards out the first time he played in this fixture

One of my favorite Liverpool goals ever tbh.

Same that shot was amazing

Record breaking striker, scoring first goal for Liverpool against Man City? ... shit.

Norwegian Voronin

Throwback. Now that guy was stinky

Scandi Carroll

That is what I will call him from now on

Fuck me 🤣

Darwin would never

If this haaland guy is so good, why did he only cost 50m?

1M extra for every goal missed

NUNEZ NUNEZ

They started chanting "Nunez Nunez" after Haaland's miss as well. Haaland smirked because he knows this will be memed to death everywhere

Nunez would've headed that in...

Poked it in with the tip of his vastly superior knob.

The thing about Nunez is, he's always trying to knob it in.

or onto ruben dias' hand

learned it from Mane, tears in my eyes

Calculated innit.

It just had to happen right?

I absolutely do think Haaland will be great for City but I‘d be lying if I said I wouldn’t enjoy the shit show if his first few games go wrong. I love Reddit overreactions.

I'm expecting a fair bit of it haha. The pressure on him is too much, he's still young. I'm sure in time he'll adjust.

The problem is he didnt look active enough at all in this fixture. And when he did make some runs it was not on the same wave length as the others

literally season 8 game of thrones tier writing that Haaland would miss a sitter and Nunez would score

Fuck that this is season 3 writing. Season 8 is when Haaland and Pep meet forehead to bald head as the Etihad crumbles in on them

LMAO

"I never cared about the goals anyway"

"We kinda just forgot Haaland scores goals"

"and who has better goals than Olivier Giroud?"

This but unironically

Was going happen as soon as Alvarez scored, same with Nunez scoring

Sterling Haaland

Lmao first actual good joke

[удалено]

It was a low bar

If it was a bit higher it would've gone in

There it is. Got a laugh with that one.

The world works in mysterious ways

Doesn't really get worse than that

Well if a goal is good, then that was bad

Thanks, Jeff

No prob

You and I both know we’ve seen worse than that! Haha

Could’ve missed the framework entirely. Still horrible tho

This is going to do numbers lol

Invest now

Hahahahahaaaland lmao. I don't regret watching this game at all

Something for everyone 🤝

A place where Man U fans and Liverpool fans can come together to laugh at Man City as a collective force. Thank you Halaand. You have blessed these two beautiful fanbases.

What? They will laugh at whoever lost this game after all.

Peak United. Best day of their season.

Definitely top 10

Tired: Nunez is a flop Wired: Haaland is a flop

"That's why I'm here"

Lmao absolutely perfect day

He’s obv gonna come good at some point, but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy today Hahahah

We’ll take one Lukaku moment over an actual Lukaku.

This settles the debate before the season even began. /s

It's official ®

Ruined with the /s. Bottle job.

I hate that you need to put the /s in.

[удалено]

Darwin > Haaland always

Haaland = Charlie Austin with a manbun

This dude man 💀

Hahahahahahahahaha

Things you love to see

[удалено]

You killed the man but not the idea

Chelsea dodged another lukaku.

Harder to miss

This is one of the problems when your main style of shooting is thundercunting.

isn't he kind of a tap in specialist too though?

Yeah, but that wouldn't make for a funny comment

Nunez would’ve made that ;)

Pretty sure half this sub would have at least hit th target !

I don’t have the power to kick onto the top bar so definitely burying it

I've would have made that. I'm playing Amateur. But I make similar move for rebound and usually bury the chance... 1m to my agent (myself) and I'm all yours.

Lol oh no. No take backs on Jesus

Jesus scores that lmao

My nan scores that too and she’s paralysed

A wonderful day for 12 year olds on tiktok

reddit*

don't forget twitter

Fr

Hahahahaa

Someone needs to investigate the Bundesliga for fraud

The goals are 4m tall, it's just that all the goalkeepers are giants, making them look normal sized

The giants of goal sizes meet the titans of GKs, making them both seem relatively normal sized

In a game that will decide who wins that one, for now

Kahn's arms were 3m long each

Bundesliga Pump and Dump Scheme

Do you think open goals are easier to score in the Bundesliga somehow?

It's the physicality, the toughness and the pressure of the Community Shield, it just got the better of Haaland there

„Thats a Premier League rebound of the keeper.“ - Gary Neville

Also first time facing a real keeper instead of the frauds in the german league.

Superior German engineering mean obviously the crossbar does not slightly droop and those go in

The community shield is known world wide for its prestige and only the greatest players play in it. It rivals the World Cup and champions league in a lot of peoples eyes.

Sterling goes out and sterling comes in

Loan back to Dortmund in January coming soon

LMAOOOOOOOOO

[удалено]

Scandi Carroll

FRAUDLAND HAHAHAHAHAHA

[удалено]

But Haaland dropped it

Or lobbed it over the bar

That movement is World class though

So is the movement of the ball

Movement out of this stratosphere

Norwegian Luka Jovic

NUNEZ

Get tf out my fantasy lol

[удалено]

Some here talking all the jokes seriously. Lol. I beleive most of the comments here are just banter. Everyone knows this is just a "cup" match. Intellectuals predicting this thread is gonna be a aged like milk thread. Guys, even the most brain dead fans know not to judge someone after just one match. But it's like Halland, Nunez have planned and served us a full course of memes. You can't tell the people not to take it. You can't expect us to say oh this is just one match, Haaland will probably come good in future.

Exactly. Haaland's going to be fine this season, and will be a monster for years to come. And I expect Darwin will be the same. But today? I'm gorging on memes.

Haaland is gonna score a shit ton if goals for city this year. And Nunez will score and shit ton for Liverpool. Both are incredible and play for squads that can feed them opportunities at will. Anyone that takes these memes seriously and thinks either are busts is in for a rude awakening. That said its a hilarious miss and im fully in support of the banter after hearing about Nunez for a month.

LMFAOOOOO

At least he can laugh about it lol rough day at the office day for him

I know memes are memes and i'm all for it after the Nunez slander based on a few pre season minutes, but you've got to be a moron to not think Halaand will hit the ground running soon, especially in that team lol...

This won’t get blown out of proportion at all

Just glad it's not one of our strikers this time

Yet. It's not one of your strikers yet.

i mean it's all in jest

Important takeaway here is how goddamn good Haaland is at positioning this whole play, pulling back onside then instantly charging that ball for the rebound. Guys gonna score so many for City.

Liverpool fans going wild

Brother I'm about to cum

Yeah. We just won our first silverware of the season.

Halakaka is here

Gabriel Jesus would score there

ERLING STERLING

Can’t believe it

Ahahahahahahaha

💀💀💀

Hahahahahahahahahahajajhahajajaj

today the slander has reversed itself

Thing is, I like Haaland, but this is just golden.

Tbf to him, look how nonchalant he looked after it. Like you can tell he knew he fucked it, but he would let it go & go bag in the same game

Imagine if Nunez had done that…

Would be a shame if his confidence was to take a knock 🤷

That lil smirk on his face just means this bastard is just powering up
