Jack Grealish was out to prove there is no such thing as a friendly after sparking a furious row during Manchester City ’s pre-season win on their tour of the United States.
The 26-year-old was involved in an altercation with Mexico goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa after a disagreement between the pair during a pre-season exhibition match against Club America, which City won 2-1.
After earning his tag as one of the most-fouled players in the Premier League, Grealish is used to having lumps kicked out of him on a weekly basis. And it was business as usual as he fell victim to a crunching challenge from America’s Bruno Valdez, which earned him a yellow card.
