ERLING HAALAND threw a temper tantrum after one of his WORST EVER games in a Manchester City shirt – by shoving one of the matchday cameras.
City dropped points in their bid to retain the Premier League title at the Etihad on Saturday evening against Chelsea.
Pep Guardiola’s troops were held to a 1-1 draw, with a second-half Rodri strike salvaging them a point.
Haaland missed a slew of chances in the match, including an absolute sitter of a header in the second half.
And the Norwegian seemingly took out his frustrations on a Sky Sports cameraman.
The 23-year-old SHOVED one of Sky‘s super-expensive cameras as he trudged off the pitch.

His actions didn’t go unnoticed, with one footie fan saying: “Haaland pushing the camera away oh grow up.”
Another said: “Haaland is fuming. He pushed the camera out of his face.”
And another said: “Erling Haaland is not here for a camera being in his face when he doesn’t have a good game.”
One remarked: “Haaland pushing the camera of the cameraman disgraceful.”

And another chimed in: “Haaland pushing the camera away – you’ve drawn a league game in February man, get a grip!”
Former Borussia Dortmund hitman Haaland had a total of NINE shots in the disappointing draw.
Three of those attempts at goal were deemed to be “big chances”.
City’s star man went into the match with an expected goals rating of 1.71.
His drawing of a blank, however, saw him become the first player in the Prem this season to not find the back of the net with such a high XG rating.
A disappointed Guardiola refused to blame Haaland for City’s dropping of points.
The Spaniard said: “I played for 11 years and scored 11 goals.
“One goal a season. I’m not a proper man to give advice to strikers.
“We create the chances and next time he’s going to score. I don’t blame him.
“As a team and a group, the first half was not like we are.”
City were on course to drop all three points thanks to a 42nd-minute strike from former player Raheem Sterling.
A deflected strike from Rodri in the 83rd minute rescued them a point.
City are currently four and two points behind table-toppers Liverpool and second-placed Arsenal respectively.
