Jesse Marsch jokes he's 'not trying to hate Erling Haaland too much' as he reunites with his former RB Salzburg striker postgame after Premier League's top scorer netted double in Man City's win over his Leeds team

Erling Haaland and his former RB Salzburg manager Jesse Marsch were reunited on the sideline after Manchester's 3-1 win over Leeds on Wednesday.

Haaland had just scored two goals in City's win leading Marsch to start the link-up off by saying 'I'm trying not to hate him too much.'

The American-born Leeds coach knows the striker only too well after working with him in Austria in 2019.
