Hello. >> Hi. >> you crying?
>> Because I'm so excited to see you. >> Yeah? >> Yes.
>> Don't cry. >> Can I get a picture with >> Yeah. >> [music] >> He scores like a machine, looks like a Viking, and is one of the biggest names the sport has ever seen.
>> Erling Haaland >> And still, through all the fame and glory, Erling Haaland has stayed humble enough to win over everyone he meets. >> [cheering] >> Just look at the young fan who shyly asked for a single signature, and the pure joy on Haaland's face as he signed page after page, giving the boy something he'd never forget. >> [music] >> But nothing melts hearts quite like the day Haaland dressed as Santa and surprised his fans at home.
And the pure disbelief and joy on their faces says everything. >> Who is Santa? >> Ho ho ho.
Merry Christmas. >> Can we have a one big photo with all of you? >> on.
>> So, do everyone look here. And 3 2 1, Merry Christmas. >> Merry Christmas.
>> What do you say to Santa, guys? >> Thank you. >> Thank you, guys.
>> [screaming] >> Thank you, guys. Hello, mate. >> [screaming] >> Hello, mate.
Nice to meet you. Hello, mate. You all right?
Hello, mate. All right, mate. That's me.
>> Oh my >> [laughter] >> I'm putting on some weight. Yeah, don't worry. I'm ready in 2 days for the new game.
>> I heard the accent, but I didn't think it was actually him. >> I knew something was up. I didn't know what, but I knew something.
>> [laughter] >> It's only about him through our front door. >> I know he's in my house right now. >> Yet, it's this girl who gives the most unforgettable reaction of all.
>> No. >> [laughter] >> NO WAY. MOMMY, YOU'RE JOKING.
YOU'RE JOKING me right now. >> Who do you think I am? >> Him.
>> [laughter] >> You're right. >> OH MY OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD.
>> HE CLEARLY ENJOYS GOING unrecognized because when two fans approached him searching for a famous footballer, >> [music] >> he was more than happy to keep them guessing. >> Are you on the Norwegian soccer team? >> Uh no, not me.
>> No, not you? I hear Really? >> I'm the social media guy.
>> Y'all are lying to me. Somebody just told me that one of you was like the biggest soccer player in the world. [music] >> You're looking at him.
>> So, take photo of both of us and you show it to him and >> And say which one? >> No worries, y'all. >> That's your American southern accent.
>> There ain't no dolly. >> That's the dolly. >> Those fans were definitely left in utter shock once they discovered they were joking around with him himself.
A moment they'll cherish forever. And it's the same shock he delivered when he became the Joker. Fooling his fans all over again.
>> Let's see if he recognizes me. >> I like it. >> You like it?
>> I like it. It's good. >> Think you know?
>> No. >> I don't think you do. >> It's worth 4 pounds.
What do you want? >> Who are you? Simple as that.
How do you How did you know? Look at that hard here. I've seen you playing for >> Is it Harland?
>> Why do you think I'm buying that? >> Joe Harland's actually mad. >> [laughter] >> I like it.
He's got good eyes. She hasn't. >> No, I thought but then I thought nah, it's definitely not cuz you won't be dressed in that in >> [laughter] >> on a Thursday night.
>> The disguise worked on plenty of people, but this fan saw right through it, spotting Harland in an instant. >> Oh my god, YOU LEGEND. >> [laughter] >> HOW did you see?
How did you see? >> [laughter] >> You look so cool. >> Then there's the young fan who is being teased for his long hair until Harland sent him a personal message reminding him it was beautiful and worth keeping.
>> Hello [music] Vinnie, Erling here. I heard that you're the Brazilian Erling Harland [music] and I appreciate that and uh long hair is really nice. So, [music] keep it and don't care don't care about what everyone says.
And also, happy birthday. >> Some of his sweetest surprises come right there in the stadium where he never lets a match end without giving his shirt to a lucky fan. >> Some of the top weights from last season still remain.
Arsenal will move up into second place. They join Spurs and Bournemouth on 10 points, but at goal difference to those pair. >> [cheering] [screaming] [cheering] >> Do you want to give me your phone?
>> And his surprises come in all shapes because Holland once hid in the back of a car while fans were asked exactly what they thought of him with no idea he was right there. >> Yeah, he is. He's doing our heads in, aren't you?
Like >> [laughter] >> Hi. Hi. Are you all right?
>> [laughter] >> Watch this fan lay out his dream Holland encounter in full detail completely unaware it's about to happen. >> Would you ever like to collaborate with him? >> [music] >> Yeah, yeah, 100% I'd be gassed to do that, yeah.
>> Maybe someday. >> Yeah. >> If you did, what would you do make with him?
Like what sort of content? >> honestly I don't know. I'd probably just go for a pint with him if he if he was Yeah, something like that.
Yeah, do something fun. Just go for a pint, something like that. >> Pint and a nice >> Um just have a chat with him.
>> What what would you >> A YouTube video. >> Oh my days. >> WHAT?
>> [laughter] >> OH, NO WAY. >> [screaming] >> YEAH. YOU HAVE BEEN HOLLAND.
NO WAY. >> YOU. >> NO WAY.
>> YEAH. >> You are joking. >> But the best one is the fan who spent the whole time roasting Holland and the moment he realizes the truth is priceless.
>> What about Erling Haaland? >> Erling Haaland? I don't know.
I feel like he's lean, he's tall, but I he doesn't strike me as a man that's got punch power. >> You think you'd beat him in a scrap? >> So I reckon just one dodge and if I get a sweet one to the nose, he's toast.
>> He's [music] toast? >> so, yeah. >> Six feet under?
>> Yeah, I think so. I mean, I just have to bury him. >> What age are you?
>> Oh, I'm 23, mate. >> So you're younger than him, probably? >> I think by like a year.
>> So he's to be dodged after that. >> I've got the youth on him is what I'm saying. I've got the youth.
I could just get under, over and under him. Have you Have you seen the neck move already? >> Yeah.
>> Are you all right? What the WHAT THE F WHAT THE F WHAT THE OH MY GOSH. >> ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
>> You'd beat him in a scrap? >> Yeah. >> All right.
>> Let me [laughter] get you What are you talking about? >> I DON'T KNOW, MATE. >> [laughter] >> I LOVE YOU.
HE'S GIVING THE BEST. >> I don't got my gloves on me. I ain't got no gloves on me.
I mean you know what I call you? I call you a lingy. A lingy.
Lingy lingy. >> You're having a scrap on the pitch. >> now, I tell you that.
>> I'm going to be famous. I'm here with lingy. Give me a hug OVER THE SEAT, [laughter] MATE.
GIVE ME A HUG OVER THE SEAT. Oh my god. >> But this fan couldn't trust his own eyes, refusing to believe Holland was real and insisting it had to be AI.
>> ridiculous. >> Big fan, then. >> Massive fan.
>> If you've ever met him, what's the one thing you'd say to him? >> I would say thank you for changing my club. Thank you for giving me the Champions League and thank you for giving me moments.
And that's it. And carry on. You keep doing your job.
>> Here you go. What wouldn't you tell him? >> No.
No. No. No.
Holland. No. This is AI.
>> Hey, bro. This is AI. >> I don't [laughter] think so.
>> Oh, you are the goat, bro. Honestly. So, thank you for that Champions League, bro.
>> I appreciate that one. >> That was big praise there. >> I kept trying to get him to pick someone else.
>> I got a bit emotional here seeing him back here, man. >> You heard him say it? >> You're the best, bro.
>> You know you're the best. >> I appreciate that support, man. >> All right, man.
Thanks for coming to the podcast. >> [laughter] >> That was good to meet you, man. Thank you so much.
>> All right, mate. Cheers. >> Big Holland.
Oh, I can't believe this. That's it. I can go home.
I can die now. >> But watch what happens when he surprises a group of young footballers at their academy because their reaction to seeing their hero walk in is unforgettable. >> No.
>> [screaming] [music] [music] [music] [music] >> Pitch invaders normally get dragged off within seconds. Haaland made [music] sure this one didn't leave empty-handed. Haaland has been every mascot's favorite at the 2026 World Cup.
So, when one young boy didn't even notice him before the Brazil match, Haaland tapped him on the shoulder himself. And the reaction was instant. >> [cheering] >> That same warmth shows up everywhere he goes, like the day a group of young Norwegians with disabilities got to interview him.
And he complimented each of them, laughed along, and gave every conversation his full attention. >> [music] [laughter] [laughter] [music] [laughter] >> He's just like his dad. Now he's at the end of >> Cool design.
Pink is for real men. >> [laughter] >> Not even I show speed could keep his cool the first time he came face to face with Haaland. >> Hey Haaland, Haaland, Haaland.
He's Hollywooding me. He's Hollywooding [music] me. What's good, brother?
Nice to meet you finally, bro. What's up bro? What's up with your hair, bro?
Don't like it? Yeah, you such a big Hold on, wait, let me get a pic. Let me get a pic.
Let me get a pic. Let me get a pic. Yes, sir.
Come on, boy. All right, Ali, yes, sir. Ali, Ali, he's a warrior, Ali.
>> Speed already has millions watching. But the woman behind Haaland's milk and beef is barely known. So, Haaland showed up determined to give her the free marketing that would make her famous in her own way.
>> We're going to make you famous. >> You're the famous one. >> You need to be famous as well.
[laughter] Have you got milk? >> Of course I've got milk. >> Yeah, good.
>> Do you know what else I've got? I've also got beef. We've got pastured pork.
>> [laughter] >> Perfect. >> here about 20 years and we started doing the raw milk about 2 weeks before lockdown. So, not that long actually.
>> So, 2020, yeah? >> Yeah. >> Now, look at that.
So, how many can I get? Cuz we need to be fair with the others. >> Well, I have to say the tomahawks probably are a harder sell because they're a little bit more expensive, obviously.
[music] um >> Okay, I'll I'll take them three then. >> [laughter] >> What else have you It's good quality, that's what I like [music] about And they take good care of the animals, which is also important. I think then the quality is even better.
>> Thank you. >> Yeah, and I'm super happy. I expected only milk and we went out with a lot of steak, milk, and honey.
So perfect. Thank you so much, Erling. >> Thank you very much.
Nice to see you again. >> With a heart like his, the love follows him everywhere, which is why Haaland strolled through the territory of City's biggest rivals, Manchester United, >> [music] >> knowing that they also love him. >> Haaland, you came to the wrong side of Manchester.
Yeah, United. Come to us next season, United. Yeah, you know it.
Come on.
