Photo: AFPBayern Munich are the next team to try to shackle Norwegian goal-machine Erling Braut Haaland when the defending Bundesliga champions face Borussia Dortmund for the German Super Cup on Tuesday.

The towering striker, who only turned 21 last month, has now scored a phenomenal 62 times in 61 games for Dortmund. Only a superb save by Frankfurt goalkeeper Kevin Trapp in added time denied Haaland another hat-trick.“We are happy that he is here and it’s for others to think about how to stop him.”German legend and Sky pundit Lothar Matthaeus thinks Haaland could give Dortmund an edge in this season’s Bundesliga title-race.

There were reports last month that Chelsea wanted to pay 175 million euros for him to which Haaland replied, “I hope they are just rumours, because that is a lot of money for one person”.Bayern are one of those monitoring him closely.The Bavarian giants will get a closer look Tuesday when Haaland goes head-to-head with Bayern striker Robert Lewandowski, 33 next Saturday, who scored a record 41 league goals last season.
