I Feel Bad For Szoboszlai After His Red Card – Haaland

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has spoken out against the decision to disallow Rayan Cherki’s goal against Liverpool deep in stoppage time. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, he wished the goal had been allowed to stand, rather than issuing a red card to Szoboszlai, which was not really in the best interests of either side.

Haaland, however, added that he understood why the referee followed the rules with his decision.

His words, “I think, for me, of course the referee has to follow the rules.

But this will give him [Szoboszlai] three games [ban]. I feel bad for him, because he gets three games. Just give the goal, don’t give red cards, it’s as simple as that.

But I think it’s the rules. This is just how it is. I don’t know. In the end, Cherki just passed me the ball and I couldn’t score, but that’s just how it is.”

WOW.
