The Norwegian phenomenon completed his treble in the space of just 26 minutes, with Joao Cancelo and Julian Alvarez (2) on target after the break.
The Norwegian netted a treble for the second successive match at the Etihad Stadium, taking his tally for the season to nine goals, the most in the competition by a player after only five appearances in the competition.
Joao Cancelo added a stunning fourth, while Julian Alvarez scored his first two goals for the club as Manchester City’s unbeaten start to the season continues with 13 points out of a possible 15 and goal difference of 14.
After the match Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola said ,”We are able to do it and we can control it. The numbers (of goals we have scored) are the numbers.
They are prolific. We can not survive conceding three goals in Newcastle, two goals against Palace.
We have to be solid, win the ball, win the duels and especially the transitions. A team like Forest use the strikers who are quick.
We have spoken a lot in the last two games about these concepts. We have to be solid, the defenders have to build up.But 19 goals in five games is the quality of the players we have.”
