Erling Haaland's father, Alf-Inge Haaland, was caught up in a bizarre incident during Real Madrid Vs Manchester City Champions League match on Tuesday.
The former Premier League star clashed with Real Madrid fans in Santiago Bernabeu and was forcefully cordoned off the corporate box.
In a viral social media footage, Alfe-Inge could be seen mocking Real Madrid fans who were shouting, "Adios" back at him in the corporate box.
The 50-year-old joined City fans at Santiago Bernabeu to watch the game, especially to see his son lead the charge against the Spanish and European giants.
The match was ongoing when the incident took place. At a point in the footage, Alfe-Inge Haaland could be seen trying to cup his ears to the"Adios" chant by Real Madrid fans as it got louder.
As he was cupping his ears to the chant, the security officials arrived and cordoned him off the security box.
The video of the bizzare incident was shared by Spanish journalist, Inaki Angulo, who revealed Alfe-Inge Haaland was cordoned off his box because he insulted Real Madrid fans by throwing his food on them.
It was not a good night for the Nowergian and his high-flying son at Santiago Bernabeu.
Erling Haaland could not score and his father was bundled out of the stands. However, Manchester City salvaged a draw as Kevin de Bruyne's equaliser canceled out Vinicius Jr first-half opener.
