Haaland abandons interview to dance with fans after clutching Premier League Cup

Following Manchester City’s title triumph on Sunday, Erling Haaland, the forward for the club, displayed his humble nature by briefly stepping away from an on-pitch interview to join the fans in a celebratory dance.

The Premier League crown was officially awarded to City after their match against Chelsea at the Etihad Stadium.

According to The Mirror, Pep Guardiola’s team sealed the championship with three games remaining as their title contenders, Arsenal, stumbled yet again in their game against Nottingham Forest.

The Gunners were stunned 1-0 by the lowly Forest, with the result all but ending their title dream after what seemed like a promising season.

Despite being declared champions on Saturday, City had to wait until Sunday before they could finally lay their hands on the English top flight trophy.

Talksport reports that Sky Sports had managed to get hold of the striker for an interview before the incident happened.

Haaland has been a revelation at Man City since his arrival in the summer of 2022 from Borussia Dortmund.

The 22-year-old has played a vital role in helping the Citizens retain the crown, with the forward boasting an eyewatering 36 Premier League goals so far.

City stars herded off pitch

Earlier, Sports Brief reported Man City players had to be ushered off after jubilant fans invaded the pitch at the Etihad Stadium moments before the Premier League title presentation.

Overjoyed supporters of the Citizens ran onto the pitch in celebration shortly after the final whistle, sparking a briefly tense moment when officials and security had to get involved.

Man City’s triumphant stars, including Kevin De Bruyne and Norwegian star, Haaland, had to be guided to the tunnel as fans spilled over onto the turf to celebrate their club’s title victory.
