Pep Guardiola and Mike Dean.
Pep Guardiola completely freaks out in the Premier League hit against Liverpool. Referee Mike Dean acknowledges his anger dance with a raised eyebrow.
2: 2! No winner in the showdown of the top English clubs. Liverpool and Manchester City split in the seventh round of the Premier League at Anfield Road on Sunday after a thrilling exchange of blows.
With start trainer Pep Guardiola, the emotions boil over. The Spaniard calls for a yellow card for Liverpool's James Milner in the 73rd minute. It would be the second one that would result in exclusion. Milner's entry against Gabriel Jesus is actually at the limit of what is permitted or even beyond it.
But then Guardiola also crossed the limits of good taste when referee Paul Tierney decides to leave Milner on the field. He becomes Rumpelstiltskin, throws away his jacket in anger, hops and screams, dances around in front of the fourth official Mike Dean.
Dean, known for his eccentric streak himself, reacts deliciously. The referee stays cool, doesn't change his face at first. Then he raises his eyebrows, giving Pep to understand that he doesn't think much of the Catalan's childish freak.
Here is the scene in the video:
