Erling Haaland Accuses Porto Player of Grabbing His Bum During Heated Confrontation
Haaland said Rosario grabbed his bottom after his second goal, as UEFA reviews flashpoints from a match that produced one yellow card for the striker.
- On Tuesday, Erling Haaland accused Porto's Pablo Rosario of grabbing his bottom during Manchester City's Champions League victory at the Estádio do Dragão. Haaland claimed Rosario was eager to prevent him from scoring a hat-trick.
- Tensions escalated throughout the match after referee Szymon Marciniak did not send off Marc Guehi for a first-half challenge on Gabri Veiga. Skirmishes continued in the tunnel as players left the field, requiring security intervention.
- Haaland scored two goals to secure the 2-0 win, with his first coming after 47 minutes. He received a yellow card following the stoppage-time scuffle with Rosario.
- Tournament organizers UEFA are awaiting reports from referee Marciniak and match delegate Stephanie Ford before deciding whether to pursue disciplinary proceedings. City could face a financial penalty if action is taken.
- Porto coach Francesco Farioli suggested the outcome could have differed had City played with 10 men, arguing that the footage of the foul on Veiga was clear and Gvardiol should have received a second yellow card.
