One Man City player did not shake Cole Palmer’s hand in tunnel before Chelsea match-Cole Palmer enjoyed another clash against former side Manchester City on Saturday but had to go without a handshake from a member of the reigning champions
In the hallway before their exciting game against Chelsea, one Manchester City player didn’t shake Cole Palmer’s hand.
The two Premier League teams played each other at the Etihad Stadium on February 17. The Blues held Pep Guardiola’s team to a 1-1 draw in a very exciting game.
Rasheem Sterling, who used to play for Manchester City, opened the scoring just before halftime. It was his second goal this season against the defending winners.
In the last few minutes of the game, City had a few chances to score, but they couldn’t get past the Blues’ goal again. They had to settle for a point, which puts them four points behind league leaders Liverpool with a game in hand.
There was a lot going on in Manchester during the 95 minutes of football, but there was a moment that could have been tense in the tunnel before the game started. Ederson Moraes was the only starting Man City player who didn’t shake Cole Palmer’s hand. Palmer was making his first return to the Etihad since his £42 million move to Chelsea earlier this season.
As they waited for the referee to signal them to go onto the pitch, Palmer was greeted by every City starter. He had short hugs with Erling Haaland and Phil Foden, but not by the Brazil international. There is a very good reason why they didn’t shake hands, though.
Fans of Luke Littler, who is only 17, can now buy his playing shirt to cheer him on as he continues to show how talented he is in the Premier League.
The darts star stunned Alexandra Palace when he was only 16 years old at the World Darts Championship (WDC), even though he lost in the final to Luke Humphries.
The Nuke will keep playing against Humphries, Michael van Gerwen, Gerwyn Price, Michael Smith, Nathan Aspinall, Rob Cross, and Peter Wright, who are seven of the best darts players in the world, every Thursday until the final in May. The event will take place in a different city each time.
The 21-year-old custodian didn’t see the Englishman because he turned around to face the City players after the first player had gone down the tunnel. That player was Ederson, so the custodian missed the chance to meet his former teammate.
Palmer has had a great first season with Chelsea. He has scored 10 goals and set up six others in the Premier League, which is the most on the team. In the EFL Cup final next Sunday (February 25), the aggressive midfielder will play in his first final with the team. They will Liverpool.
