Manchester City Fans Baffled by Erling Haaland’s antics after Dramatic Draw against Arsenal
In a match that will be remembered for its dramatic finish, Manchester City came from behind to earn a 2-2 draw against Arsenal at the Etihad Stadium. However, it was Erling Haaland’s actions in the aftermath of John Stones’ equalizing goal that has left fans scratching their heads.
The Norwegian superstar, who had given City the lead with his opener, was seen throwing the ball at an Arsenal player after Stones’ goal was confirmed. The move seemed bizarre, and many took to social media to wonder what was going through Haaland’s mind.
"This is not what you do when you’re celebrating a last-minute equalizer! Has Haaland got something against Arsenal?" one fan tweeted.
The game had all the makings of a thriller, with both teams creating chances galore. Haaland’s first-half goal was cancelled out by Riccardo Calafiori and Gabriel Magalhaes, but City refused to give up. Stones’ injury-time strike ensured a share of the spoils for the home side.
As for Haaland’s decision to throw the ball at an Arsenal player, we may never know what he was thinking. Was he simply trying to relieve tension, or did he have an axe to grind with the Gunners? One thing is certain, however – Manchester City fans are now eagerly awaiting the response from Arsenal.
