Bitter minutes for Erling Haaland and Manchester City: After the Norwegian had shot a penalty in the FA Cup quarter-finals against Bournemouth (LiveTicker), the fans of the “Cherries” mocked him.

“You´re just as *** Andy Carroll” (“You are just a bad version of Andy Carroll”) echoed at the Vitality Stadium. In addition to the penalty, Haaland awarded other top opportunities – to the delight of the home fans.

To understand: After his breakthrough at Newcastle United, Andy Carroll moved to the Reds for 41 million euros in January 2011 (then the most expensive transfer in British football).

There he was supposed to succeed Fernando Torres, but turned out to be a big transfer flop. Eleven goals and a year and a half later, Carroll moved on and became a hiking bird.

For City, things didn’t go any better after the failure. At the break, Pep Guardiola’s team was 0-1 behind after a goal from Evanilson.
