Manchester City forward Erling Haaland vented out his frustration by pushing a camera aside, after a disappointing outing against Chelsea. The match ended in a 1-1 draw, as the Norwegian forward missed three big chances.

The Citizens endured a tough night, as they dropped valuable points in the race to the Premier League titles. The draw with Chelsea pushed City down to the 3rd position, as Arsenal overtook them. Rodri’s 83rd minute goal helped them salvage a point, in what was a dismal performance. Erling Haaland particularly, did not enjoy the outing, as he had ten shots, but failed to score a single goal. He missed a slew of chances in the match, including an good header opportunity in the second half.

The cameraperson was trying to capture Haaland’s emotions, but the player instead shoved him aside. Despite this, he is still running strong as he remains the top scorer in the EPL with 16 goals.

The otherwise prolific Erling Haaland missed several opportunities, including one free header from six yards out. Manager Guardiola although showed his support for the forward, saying that he scored 11 goals in 11 years himself as a player, and so he may not be the right person to advise strikers how to score goals. Moreover, he showered a lot of praise on the Norwegian for creating the chances.

The Spaniard remained optimistic about the 23-year forward, expressing his belief that he would score in the upcoming matches.
