"Simon Hooper unfortunately making what could have been a massive mistake, Grealish one on one with the keeper and pulling play back. Both of these teams have got to be proud of themselves, great football, great finishes, great game."Others were more blunt that Dublin, on social media, calling the decision by Hooper "disgraceful" and claiming the official prevented a great goalscoring chance for Grealish. Over on Sky Sports, Roy Keane agreed with his former United teammate’s take. Keane believed City had been hard done-by.
“It’s a poor call, he’s got it wrong, obviously. Jack Grealish is through on goal and he did play the advantage (initially). We were praising him for that then, for some reason, he blew his whistle. He’s definitely got that wrong, and we can all see that.”Erling Haaland was livid as his teammates berated Hooper for him calling back play for the foul. At full-time, he shook hands with both linesmen before turning to shout some choice words in Hooper's direction. The Norwegian stormed off the pitch and headed down the tunnel, just as City boss Pep Guardiola was trading barbs with several players from the Tottenham bench. Haaland then took to Twitter to comment 'WTF' above a clip of the crucial end-game moment: https://twitter.com/erlinghaaland/status/1731387201622004197 The result sees City left in third place, a point behind Liverpool and three off leaders Arsenal.
