Jamie Carragher mocks Steven Gerrard for touchline antics in hard-fought Man City draw

Jamie Carragher spotted Steven Gerrard's meme-worthy celebration after Aston Villa equalised against Manchester City.

The Liverpool legend, an ex-teammate of Gerrard's, was commentating on Villa's hard-earned 1-1 draw with the champions on Saturday. Leon Bailey ruled out City striker Erling Haaland 's 50th-minute opener with an emphatic finish late on, allowing Villa to take a point from the Premier League clash and avoid making it four successive losses.

When Bailey's belter hit the back of the net with venom, Gerrard turned towards his coaching staff celebrating and seemingly gestured for them to temper their celebrations. The Villa boss' body language was reminiscent of Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl's celebration when his side took the lead against Arsenal two years ago.
