Alf Inge Haaland, the father of Manchester City striker Erling Haaland, has been branded ‘disgusting’.
This is after he threw food at Real Madrid fans during Manchester City’s Champions League semi-final 1-1 draw on Tuesday.
The former Manchester City star denied that he lobbed peanuts at Los Blancos supporters during the game.
But Spanish journalist Inaki Angulo, who recorded the footage that has since gone viral online, lambasted the Norwegian.
He also explained that the former footballer threw food at Real Madrid fans, despite his denial.
“The version he gave when he said that everything ‘erupted’ after De Bruyne’s brilliant goal, that is not true,” he told talkSPORT.
“The fact is he didn’t behave like a man of his experience. He was out of his mind during the first half, and he was throwing things at the Real Madrid fans, throwing peanuts or small bits of food that you get in these VIP areas… It was a little bit disgusting.
“Things were getting a little bit… dirty, and the Real Madrid workers and security acted, and he was relocated to another VIP area.
“I saw him throw the peanuts. Of course, he’s going to deny it, but I saw it and the people around me saw it.”
