Erling Haaland admits he would have been 'FUMING' if Manchester City had been at the wrong end of Nathan Ake's controversial goal against Fulham

Erling Haaland admitted he would have been 'fuming' if Manchester City had been on the wrong end of their controversial second goal against Fulham.

With the score level at 1-1, Nathan Ake put Pep Guardiola's side ahead with a header, though many expected it to be ruled out for offside.

Fulham's defensive line had moved up, leaving Manuel Akanji offside as the defender jumped over the ball before it hit the back of the net.

Referee Michael Oliver awarded the goal in a decision which was not overturned by VAR, leaving Fulham players and boss Marco Silva fuming - as City then went on to run away with a dominant 5-1 victory.
