Erling Haaland IS human after all! Man City star misses TWO penalties for Norway in World Cup qualifier in remarkable scenes... before normal service resumes with sensational hat-trick

Erling Haaland's golden touch at the start of the season briefly deserted him as the Man City star missed a penalty and a retaken spot in Norway's key World Cup qualifier - before scoring for the 10th consecutive match.

Haaland has been in lethal form so far this season, with the forward having scored in all but one match he has featured in to date.

Heading into Norway's clash against Israel, Haaland had scored 13 goals in his last 10 appearances.

He appeared poised to add to the tally when Norway were awarded a third minute penalty, after Patrick Berg was fouled in the box by Dan Biton.
