FA Cup summary: Manchester City - Burnley 0:6 (Sport 1)
Erling Holland continues his amazing season at Manchester City, and the commentator Alan Shearer was also full of praise for the hat-trick scorer in the 0:6 against Burnley in the FA Cup and called the Norwegian a "goal machine".
Holland scored his second hat-trick in two games - with a goal coming on average every 15 minutes and 55 seconds.
It's Holland's sixth hat-trick of the season, and it's clear that his scoring rate is dizzying: 42 goals, and who knows where he'll stop.

Shearer is currently the all-time top scorer in the Premier League, with 260 goals scored during his career.
But even Shearer himself admits that according to his debut season in England, Holland is about to smash their records.
"Holland is a beast," declared Shearer.
"He's a goal-scoring machine. He lives and breathes goals. If he doesn't score, he doesn't sleep at night. He wants one more, then another, then another. He's fantastic, and this team is a dream with the situations it creates for him."
Shearer also highlighted Holland's ability to change the team's momentum.
"He barely kicked until the first goal. City didn't play well in the first 30 minutes," said the commentator, "he might score 50 goals this season, maybe even 60. It's crazy."
According to him, "He has great self-confidence without being arrogant, he is selfish in the right way."
Pep Guardiola said that "this guy will have problems in the future, he is expected to score three-four goals in every game... and it won't happen. But I don't think he cares, he is so positive, takes care of himself, he never complains, and as long as the team With him, he will conquer."
Pep treated the allegations against him with cynicism after replacing Holland when he already had five against Leipzig, saying yesterday: "Yes, I replaced Erling because I didn't want him to break Messi's record in the FA Cup, I'm trying to punish my players."
