ENGLISH FA TO INVESTIGATE ARSENAL AFTER FANS THROW OBJECTS AT DE BRUYNE
The Football Association in England has launched an investigation after Arsenal fans threw objects at Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne during Wednesday night’s Premier League game at the Emirates Stadium.
Erling Haaland wrapped up a 3-1 win for the reigning champions, as Arsenal slipped out of the top spot they had occupied since the third week of the season.
De Bruyne’s opening goal for Manchester City had been cancelled out by Bukayo Saka’s penalty shot, but Jack Grealish and Haaland scored to give Guardiola’s side the victory.
De Bruyne was pelted with plastic bottles as the Belgian made his way back to the dugout around the pitch after being substituted in the 87th minute.
Despite the hostility, De Bruyne smiled back at the crowd as he dodged a thrown bottle while one hit the corner flag.
Arsenal have now lost three of their last four matches in all competitions, but remain behind City only on goal difference, and do have a game in hand.
