Haaland scored his 35th league goal this year in the 70th minute against West Ham.
Erling Haaland, a forward for Manchester City, thought back on a "special night" after his goal against West Ham broke the record for most goals in a single Premier League season.
After receiving a pass from Jack Grealish, Haaland sprinted on goal in the 70th minute and chipped Lukasz Fabianski to reach 35 league goals this season.
Andy Cole and Alan Shearer, who had previously held the record for their efforts in the 1993–1994 and 1994–1995 seasons, were surpassed by the Norwegian as a result of the Norwegian's performance.
"A special evening and time. Haaland admitted to being extremely thrilled and proud to Sky Sports.
"Of course I was aware of it. Of course, but we also work to make goalscoring opportunities. It was challenging.
They came here to attempt to defend for 90 minutes, and we struggled a little in the first half, but in the second half, Nath (Ake), I, and Phil (Foden) all scored, making it a significant victory.
Haaland matched Cole and Shearer's 34 goals on Sunday at Fulham thanks to an early penalty, but he had to wait a few days before taking the lead entirely.
After his performance in a 3-0 victory that returned Pep Guardiola's team to the top of the Premier League, his City teammates presented the summer acquisition with a guard of honor at the conclusion of the game.
Haaland has set Dixie Dean, who scored 63 goals for Everton in the 1927–28 season, as his next personal objective.
Despite having 51 goals for the year, Haaland insisted: "No, I'm not thinking of this right now. I'll ponder about this game while I sleep, and when I get up the next morning, I'll consider trying to beat Leeds by three points.
"With a new manager and everything, it won't be easy, but we can't keep focusing on these records. I wouldn't think of this because I would go mad in my thoughts and my head would go insane.
