Evra, dispute with Guardiola’s staff after Manchester City-Real Madrid- Corriere.it

Manchester City-Real Madrid just ended, Guardiola’s team swept away the Spaniards by taking the pass for the final against Inter. On the sideline, commentator for Prime Videosthere is among others Patrice Evra, formerly of Juventus and Manchester United. He dressed in red, according to some a tribute to the colors of United (in the City stadium). He’s on the sidelines when he engages a very heated conversation with Manuel Estiarte, one of Guardiola’s assistants and trusted man. The dialogue, taken up by some fans in the stands and then shared on social media, soon became a real fight. The security personnel intervene, evidently worried that it will go further, and try to calm down Evra. What’s behind this discussion?

According to the reconstruction of BBC 5Live, the former defender teased Manchester City for losing to Manchester United this season. Evra himself then approached the CBS commentary panel and explained the real reason for the dispute: One looked at me and was like, “This for you!”. I approached him, I asked him why he was so agitated and he replied that last year I said that the City people pissed themselves off and that’s why they lost. I’m not on it this year and that’s the truth, I’m an honest man.

A colorful language, live on TV, for which the presenter Kate Abdo apologized to viewers: We don’t swear in our broadcasts. I apologize to America. Evra retorted: Go to the toilet don’t swear, you shouldn’t invite me!. Then, after teasing Micah Richards for dressing up like a Christmas tree, she left the post yelling I love this game !.
