Haaland posted angry about the referee’s whistle in the 90+4 minute of the game against Tottenham

Manchester City’s derby against Tottenham fully justified its characterization, with Guardiola’s side being better for most of the game (xgoals 2.64-0.49) but unable to make up for their performance with three points, with 3 -3. It is the third consecutive draw for Pep Guardiola’s side in the league season and the first positive result for Postecoglou’s side after three consecutive defeats.

But putting aside the complaints the citizens have about themselves for watching Tottenham take the bite out of their mouths in the 90’s and despite looking like they were in control, they walked off the pitch with a lot of nerves are at the mercy of the referee.

The reason for Simon Hooper and the decision he made in the 90+4 minute when he committed a foul in favor of Haaland in midfield, and while Grealis was alone against Vicario after receiving a pass from the Norwegian (despite the foul , which he had received, he immediately picked up and gave the pass), whereby the game master did not give up the advantage and triggered a storm of reactions.

The players of the English and European champions surrounded the referee in the seconds after the decision and asked him for an explanation, while Haaland wanted to further “aggravate” the issue and published the video of the controversial phase in which his team was wronged with the following Comment: “What the fuck (wtf)”.

It is noted that Pep Guardiola also commented on this phase, with the Catalan being asked about it and not hiding his bitterness at the referee’s decision not to allow the game to develop further:

“Next question. I won’t make a comment like Mikel Arteta. It’s hard when you watch the phase again, the referee decides to blow the whistle after he has already said that the game should continue. After the pass, the whistle, I don’t understand.” his action…

It is a pity. Sometimes football is like life, you don’t get what you deserve.”
