Myles Lewis-Skelly appeared to rub salt in Manchester City’s wounds as he mocked Erling Haaland by copying his celebration after scoring his first goal for the club on Sunday.

The 18-year-old found the net with Arsenal’s third as the Gunners dominated City at in a 5-1 thrashing at the Emirates.

Lewis-Skelly, able to play after his controversial red card against Wolves was rescinded on appeal, then performed Haaland’s trademark celebration – where the Norwegian sits on the floor in a meditative pose.

It comes after the Arsenal youngster had clashed with Haaland after the Gunners had drawn 2-2 with City at the Etihad in September. After seeing Haaland and Gabriel face off, Lewis-Skelly attempted to intervene and back up his team-mate.

Haaland reacted to Lewis-Skelly’s arrival on the scene by dismissively gesturing for him to go away.

Multiple fans on social media were convinced that Haaland also said to Lewis-Skelly  ‘Who the f*** are you’ after seeing footage of the spat.

Lewis-Skelly was given a standing ovation after being withdrawn by Arteta in the 90th minute on Sunday.

His goal, where he cut inside before firing a shot that Stefan Ortega could only parry in off the post, put Arsenal 3-1 up as they produced a superb performance in a 5-1 victory.

Martin Odegaard put the hosts ahead early on after capitalizing on an error by Manuel Akanji, before Haaland briefly restored parity in the second half.

Arsenal were back in front just a minute later through Thomas Partey’s deflected effort, with Lewis-Skelly then giving the home side a two-goal cushion.

It was one-way traffic in the latter stages as further strikes by Kai Havertz and Ethan Nwaneri put the gloss on a sublime evening for Mikel Arteta’s side.
