Fans think Erling Haaland 'farted' on Leon Goretzka in a hilarious video during Manchester City's clash against Bayern Munich.
Man City beat Bayern 4-1 on aggregate to book their spot in the Champions League semi-final earlier this month.
The Blues thrashed their German counterparts 3-0 at the Etihad as they drew 1-1 in the return leg at the Allianz Arena.
Haaland scored on his return to Germany and a few weeks on from the second-leg tie, a video of the Norwegian phenom from the match has gone viral.

People online are convinced the Man City superstar forward 'farted' around Goretzka, who can be seen holding his noise and stepping away from his opponent.
Haaland then rubs his stomach as if to say he's just let rip.
Needless to say, the moment between Haaland and Goretzka sent social media into overdrive.
One Twitter user wrote: "Is that why the defences of each team he has scored at couldn't handle him??"
A second tweeted: "Erling Fartland."
A third joked: "Erling Fart Haaland."
A fourth said: "I think he explained to Goretzka about his stomach upset."
Another added: "He touched his stomach to let him know he is not doing it intentionally."
One thing's for sure, Bayern failed to contain Haaland as he scored in both legs to eliminate the Bundesliga side from the competition.
The 22-year-old fired blank against Sheffield United in the FA Cup, but he returned to the score-sheet versus Arsenal.
He scored his side's fourth goal in their 4-1 win over the Gunners in midweek as he starred at the Etihad.
Haaland has scored a staggering 49 goals in all competitions this season as Man City continue to fight on three fronts.
