New footage from after Arsenal's dramatic Super Sunday clash with Manchester City has shown Erling Haaland losing his cool just moments on from his wild celebrations. The Norwegian striker, who had opened the scoring, appeared to be on a one-man mission to confront the entire Arsenal side.

Reacting after John Stones' 97th-minute equaliser, Haaland initially caused a stir by throwing the ball at Gabriel Magalhaes, who was distraught inside the penalty area with his shirt over his head. Haaland sprinted off to join his teammates in jubilation after rescuing a point at the Etihad Stadium.

City's striker then continued his barrage, running into Thomas Partey after Arsenal kicked off. It mirrored Kai Havertz's own collision with Rodri in the opening seconds of the match.

Haaland still wasn't done there though as he squared up to Gabriel in the aftermath. Gunners debutant Myles Lewis-Skelley was also picked out as Haaland took the fight to his opponents once more.

Referee Michael Oliver ended the game shortly after, bringing to a close one of the most dramatic matches of the season. As was the case when the two sides met in March, it still didn't resolve everything.

Much like when Haaland and Gabriel were involved in a heated exchange following a much less chaotic 0-0 draw, City's goalscoring centurian was keen to establish dominance over other. Speaking to Mikel Arteta in the centre circle at full-time, Haaland told the Arenal boss to, "Stay humble, stay humble," as he patted the Spaniard on the back.

Gabriel Jesus then jumped in to diffuse the situation as players gathered to shake hands, but was only able to further annoy Haaland. "What, what, what?" the former Borussia Dortmund man asked, mockingly, whilst Jesus was talking.

Arsenal's forward, who Haaland effectively replaced two years ago, seemed to be trying to calm things down, asking what the problem was. Haaland was having none of it though as he squared up to Jesus and towered over him.

"What are you talking about, f****** clown," Haaland continued. Jesus, who had been gesturing to Haaland, putting his hands near his chest, was then pushed back, and responded, "Don't touch me."

That was that for Haaland, as he stormed away, shouting, "What are you talking about, get the f***away, you f****** clown." In the middle of this final outburst, Jack Grealish came in to split the pair up, whilst Arsenal assistant manager Albery Stuivenberg watched on closeby.

Riccardo Calafiori was also waiting patiently for tempers to cool, with Arteta coming back past Haaland and calling both Ben White and Jesus to leave. Haaland was involved in controversy in December last year as well when he fumed at a late decision against City during their 3-3 draw with Tottenham.
