Manchester City may win the championship, but the mood doesn’t last long. When the fans storm the pitch, the opposing goalkeeper is attacked.
A slap in the face: Manchester City not only celebrated a 3-2 win over Aston Villa on Sunday, but also won the English championship. But any celebration is nipped in the bud when a Man City fan attacks Aston Villa goalkeeper Robin Olsen on the pitch. TV pictures show how Olsen, surrounded by Man City fans, is hit on the head by a trailer.
Pointless attack: Legendary player and Sky expert Gary Neville says of the attack: “Where do these idiots attacking opposing players on the field suddenly come from? This is absolutely ridiculous. Now all of a sudden there’s this feeling, this real threat, that the fans might start attacking players and coaches.”
This has consequences: Manchester City has already launched an investigation. The association is working closely with the police to identify those responsible. Should this succeed, the perpetrator faces a lifelong stadium ban.
