An FA spokesperson said the incident involving Haaland and Gabriel was checked by the Video Assistant Referee at the time and no further action was deemed necessary. "I just felt like I needed to put something out there which has been bothering me. Because obviously the Trossard sending off - of course, in the moment, you're frustrated," Wright posted on Instagram.
"But the one thing that boiled me up properly was Haaland's coward's move, bro. I saw it this morning properly. Throwing the ball in Gabi's head when he's not looking. When Gabi's back's turned to him. Real coward's move. Gabi would look him in the eye, you know.
