ERLING HAALAND shrugged off Marc Cucurella as he scored against Chelsea and fans were left delighted.
The striker opened his account for the season with a dinked finish to put his side 1-0 up at Stamford Bridge.
Levi Colwill’s attempted tackle could not stop Haaland, not could left-back Cucurella.
Haaland shrugged off the Spaniard to score – just weeks after Cucurella sang a song poking fun at the City superstar.
After winning the Euros with Spain Cucurella went viral on social media with the song.
He mocked Haaland, singing: “Cucurella eats paella, Cucurella drinks Estrella, Haaland trembles that Cucurella is coming.”
Fans loved that Cucurella was forced to eat humble pie as Haaland scored the “most obvious” goal ever.
One reacted saying: “We all knew this was happening ”
Another added: “Football script writers are so predictable cause Haaland scoring a goal with Cucurella defending on him was the most obvious thing ever.”
A third wrote: “Haaland embarrassing Cucurella there. Love to see it after that terrible song.”

And another commented: “Cucurella….Haaland’s done you there fella.”
Cucurella even sang the song in an advert for Estrella and dyed his hair red for the occasion.
