Pep Guardiola involved in hilarious altercation with Man City fan during Newcastle match

Pep Guardiola was spotted having a hilarious exchange with a Manchester City fan during their Premier League clash against Newcastle United.

After what was a cagey start to the match, City found the go-ahead goal thanks to a brilliant Julian Alvarez strike in the 31st minute.

City boss Guardiola was then spotted having an altercation with a fan, in which he appeared to ask the fan to take his place on the bench.

Have a look at the footage below.

Fans were quick to react on social media.

One said: “Pep Guardiola has an altercation with a fan. He is saying something like that he should come and take his place on the bench!”

Another tweeted: “Pep Guardiola to the fans: "if you think you're better than me come here and do my job"

A third fan added: “Pep telling a fan to come and manage the team.”

Someone else wrote: “Pep Guardiola telling a fan who asked him to make some changes to come and do it himself.”

Whilst a fifth commented: “Pep Guardiola just told a fan in the stands to come sit in his seat if he thinks he could do a better job.”

Another fan said: “Pep Guardiola signals to a fan in the stands to come and take his seat if he knows better!”

City eventually managed to hold out to win 1-0 against a stubborn Newcastle side to make it six points out of six.

Guardiola's men will be back in action next Sunday as they take on Sheffield United.
