The Norway international has taken to Snapchat following the fixture at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday

Erling Haaland has taken to social media to share a video of Arsenal fans abusing him following Manchester City's 1-1 draw at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.

The Norway international bagged his sixth league goal of the season in north London, with Haaland putting City ahead in the ninth minute of the match via a composed finish.


But Arsenal, ultimately, were able to earn a draw through Gabriel Martinelli - with the Brazilian coming off the bench to dink the ball past Gianluigi Donnarumma and spark wild celebrations around the ground.

City were left frustrated as a result, having come so close to securing all three points in the capital.

And Haaland and his team-mates were subjected to some vile abuse from supporters following the match, with the 25-year-old taking to Snapchat to share a video of young fan curling his fist and waving it from side to side.

The young supporter, who seems to be a teenager, also put an Arsenal shirt round his head to try and mimick Haaland's long hair.

In fairness to the City striker, he took the abuse well.

Haaland could be seen giggling while he recorded the clip and one Arsenal fan appeared to berate the young fan for his actions.

Meanwhile, City boss Pep Guardiola sensationally swore following the match - insisting he 'doesn't give a f**k' about results and was pleased with his side's effort and determination.

"It's the body language - how we celebrate, how we communicate, how we make an effort," he said.

"We lost it a lot last season. I said I don't give a f*** about the results, I want to see the spirit back in the training sessions and us enjoying it.

"We had to recover it. This week we have recovered. We have to continue.

"I suffered. I don't like it, I want the ball far away [from goal].

"But one time 10 years is not bad, right? Our resilience was fantastic, otherwise we cannot survive."

Guardiola also admitted that Arsenal were the better team on the day, too, despite the Gunners relying on Martinelli to earn a draw.

"We played tough games this week - Manchester United and in the Champions League - and today we played against a powerful team," he said.

"Hats off to our team for the resilience. It's so difficult when you're not effective with high pressing, it's always tough in the build-up.

"We made some transitions. I think the result is fair. In general Arsenal were better."

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta, meanwhile, was disappointed his side couldn't get even more from the match.

"At the very least [we deserved a point]," he told the BBC.

"I'm so proud of my players, the way we played, the way we dominated almost every aspect of the game.

"Very disappointed not to win the game."
