Rasmus Hojlund brutally mocks Kyle Walker with poem after ’embarrasing’ Manchester derby incident
Rasmus Hojlund delivered a savage jibe at Kyle Walker on social media following the Manchester City captain’s play-acting in Sunday’s derby clash. The pair were involved in a row at the Etihad Stadium, going head-to-head after Walker shoved Hojlund to the ground. Sky SportsHojlund had a cheeky message for Walker on social media[/caption] Walker fell to the ground clutching his face but replays showed there had been little contact between them. Roy Keane and Gary Neville both branded veteran defender Walker’s actions as “embarrassing”. United and Hojlund had the last laugh as they snatched all three points thanks to late goals from Bruno Fernandes and Amad Diallo. And Man United forward Hojlund couldn’t resist a jibe at Walker as he shared a cheeky message on Instagram after his side’s dramatic victory. Sharing a snap of his confrontation with Walker, Hojlund wrote: “Manchester is red. Violets are blue “What a brilliant performance. But the Oscar goes to…” Walker’s theatrical fall to the turf was slammed by Keane at half-time, with the former United skipper calling the full-back’s behaviour ’embarrassing’. Their altercation had stemmed from a foul by Walker on Hojlund, which prompted an angry reaction from the Dane. A melee ensued between players from both teams before referee Anthony Taylor booked both Walker and Hojlund. Reacting at half-time, Keane fumed: “You don’t mind a bit of this, this is going to happen in a game, a bit of angry bargy, of course. “He’s obviously been blocked, but Walker.. of course it’s a foul and a free-kick and Hojlund’s not happy and that’s fine. Sky SportsWalker threw himself to the floor after their confrontation[/caption] “But he then goes over, how can Walker [go down]? He must be embarrassed. He must be embarrassed to go down like that. “An experienced player, this isn’t contact. Look at this! I don’t know the guy and I’m embarrassed for him.” Hojlund went on to have the last laugh after the Red Devils’ late turnaround. The win meant United avoided losing three consecutive league matches for the first time since 2015. However, they remain 13th in the Premier League despite securing their sixth victory of the campaign. As for City, the champions have now won just one of their last 11 matches in all competitions. Pep Guardiola’s side sit fifth behind Nottingham Forest and nine points adrift of leaders Liverpool. The Spaniard will be hoping to inspire a response away to Aston Villa next Saturday, whilst United face Tottenham in the Carabao Cup on Thursday.
