Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has been described as “lucky” by a former referee after not being sent off against Everton.
The Blues were in action against Man City in the Premier League clash at the Etihad Stadium on New Year’s Eve. Frank Lampard’s side went 1-0 down thanks to an opener from Haaland, and then into the half-time break a goal behind.
Haaland went down injured in the early minutes of the match after an aerial challenge with Ben Godfrey. Later in the game, the Norway striker was shown a yellow card for a tackle on Vitalii Mykolenko.
