Guardiola then walked out of the press conference before any more questions could be asked, according to talkSPORT.

He said: “That’s the story of the world, huh?

“A person who doesn’t understand a word trying to calm down two people.

“It’s fine, it’s just emotions, nothing else.

“Because love them both, I was probably the perfect person to do that.

“But nothing spectacular. Emotions.”

Erling Haaland fired Man City into the lead in the match before Trent Alexander-Arnold scored a late equaliser.

The Liverpool star was also donning some unreleased Adidas Predator boots, hinting that he has changed sponsor.

Haaland’s goal saw him become the fastest player in Premier League history to hit the 50-goal mark.
