Pep Guardiola, the Manchester City manager, was caught in a heated confrontation with a man on the streets of Manchester. The incident went viral on social media on Friday afternoon, leaving many fans shocked and curious about what had happened.
In the video, Guardiola can be seen walking down the street in a dark grey suit and black tie, accompanied by his son and another man. Suddenly, a man with a Scouse accent, who was filming Guardiola, taunted him by saying, "Nah, mate, just because you lost." This seemed to have triggered Guardiola, who turned around and attempted to approach the man. However, he was held back by his son and the other man, while he yelled, "Do you know what is lost? Do you want me to sign you?"
A third man, who was holding a pen and a book, tried to calm the situation by saying, "Pep, please, I didn't say that." The man who initially goaded Guardiola then said, "No, it's fine," trying to de-escalate the situation.
The clip, which was shared on Friday afternoon, was believed to be filmed after City's 2-0 defeat to Liverpool last Sunday. However, it was later revealed that the incident actually took place after City's 2-1 defeat to Manchester United in the FA Cup final back in May. It was evident from Guardiola's suit and tie in the footage, which matched what he wore at Wembley for the final.
City's recent defeat to Liverpool was their seventh consecutive game without a win. During the game, Guardiola even responded to taunts from the home supporters by holding up six fingers, representing the number of Premier League titles he has won. Fortunately, they managed to end their winless streak with a 3-0 victory against Nottingham Forest on Wednesday.
Currently, City sits at fourth place in the Premier League table, nine points behind leaders Liverpool. The team will be playing against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday, and fans are eagerly waiting to see how Guardiola and his players will respond after the recent controversy.
