Zen-sational KDB puts City on brink

Four-goal hero mimics Erling's Buddha celebration as title glory nears

With his four-goal burst and 'Zen' celebration pose, Kevin De Bruyne did his best impersonation of a future Manchester City teammate on Wednesday.

Erling Haaland is joining City next season as one of the most sought-after strikers in world soccer and even he would be hard-pressed to produce the kind of finishing demonstrated by De Bruyne in a 5-1 rout of Wolverhampton Wanderers to maintain City's English Premier League title charge on Wednesday.

After the Belgium midfielder completed his hat-trick－his first for City－by the 24th minute, he celebrated with the Zen pose adopted by Haaland in recent years at Borussia Dortmund.
