Welcome to the 22nd edition of The Athletic’s Friday quiz question.
At the end of every week, we’ll serve up a poser from our vault of football conundrums. It won’t be easy (unless you’re really good), but what better way to head into the weekend than giving your soccer-loving brain a bit of exercise? Chuck it in your group chats and see who knows their stuff.
Oh, and there’s no prize, except the quiet satisfaction of a job well done.

Erling Haaland has scored 72 goals in 70 Premier League appearances, which let’s face it, is quite good.

Check back around 5pm (BST) today for the answer…
