🤯 After derby red: City star goads rival fans after full-time

🤯 After derby red: City star goads rival fans after full-time For Phil Foden, the working day in his Sky Blues’ derby against Manchester United ended early this afternoon: he was sent off with a straight red after just 23 minutes. Referee Michael Oliver sent him for an early shower for kicking out at Bruno Fernandes and further inflamed an already heated derby atmosphere. A real disservice to his team, which still ended up leaving the pitch as winners despite being a man down for such a long time. At Old Trafford, City edged Carrick’s side 1–0 thanks to a goal from Erling Haaland. As Foden left the stadium after the final whistle, he couldn’t resist lightly provoking the waiting fans – or at least showing his relief over the late derby win. He casually walked past the spectators and used his fingers to signal the final score: 1–0. The red card itself was also purely a product of emotion. After Bruno Fernandes fouled Foden, the Englishman went to ground and, in frustration, kicked out in the direction of the Portuguese player. The playmaker was more than happy to make the most of the contact. Michael Oliver showed a straight red right away – a decision that was not reviewed by VAR and was judged by many to be too harsh. Foden’s teammate Haaland was visibly worked up over the incident: he seemed extremely angry that his teammate had let himself get carried away like that. In the end, of course, as always, only the win matters. Still: can you understand Foden’s reactions around the derby?  This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
