One of the main heroes of the media after the tense match between Manchester City and Arsenal was the Citizens' forward Erling Haaland, who “made his mark” both on and off the pitch.
Details: After the final whistle, the Norwegian called for the Canaries' head coach Mikel Arteta to “stay humble” and when Arsenal forward Gabriel Jesus stood up for his coach and asked why Haaland was talking like that, the Brazilian received a portion of profanity from Manchester City's Norwegian striker in response.
Quote, ‘Talking about something I didn't say. Bloody clown. What are you talking about, get out of here, you bloody clown,’ Haaland said.
Reminder: After scoring the goal, the Norwegian threw the ball into the back of Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhães' neck, and it was revealed after the game that the forward, as well as his club, will not be penalised for this at all.
