Erling Haaland has been brutally mocked for his costly miss in Manchester City’s 1-1 draw with Nottingham Forest.
City, who saw title rivals Arsenal grab a dramatic late win at Aston Villa in the early kick-off, dominated at the City Ground and took the lead shortly before the break through Bernardo Silva. The visitors should have been further ahead in the second half, with Haaland spurning their best chances, including two in one passage of play.
After Keylor Navas had failed to hold a shot, the ball broke to Haaland, whose volley into the ground struck the bar. Fortuitously, the ball came back to the Premier League’s leading scorer inside the six-yard box. A goal looked inevitable, only for Haaland to incredibly smash it over the bar, to the disbelief of the City fans behind the goal.
