Two weeks after their on-field altercation, Manchester City player Kyle Walker was booked for an irresponsible challenge on Brentford’s Neal Maupay.

The 27-year-old Maupay had just entered the game after starting it on the sidelines.

After 13 minutes on the field, Maupay found himself in a 50/50 situation with Walker.

With full force, the City captain sent the forward flying and was later given a yellow card.

Two minutes after entering the game, Maupay threw up the ball, setting up Erling Haaland to score the game-winning goal on a counterattack. Maupay’s evening was off to a bad start.

This was the first time Maupay and Walker had seen each other since their violent altercation two weeks prior.

That time, in the latter stages of the game, a clearly incensed Walker, 33, complained to fourth official Stuart Attwell and referee Jarred Gillett.

The England star allegedly threatened to “knock out” the Brentford forward after he “spoke about my kids,” according to a lip reader.

It was stated that Maupay told the referee, “I didn’t, it’s okay,” in denial of having done so.

Since Gillett’s match report did not include the event, the FA did not take any further action.

After his team won 3-1, Pep Guardiola, the manager of City, remained silent on the subject.

Thomas Frank, the manager of Brentford, responded, “No (I know nothing).” They seemed to be conversing with one another.

“No, I haven’t spoken with Maupay. After a game where we lost, it’s not my first priority.

The Frenchman had defeated Tottenham players the week before by imitating James Maddison’s celebration during a match against the North Londoners.

In a recent interview with The Times, he defended his on-field antics, saying: “People say football players are boring, so when a player does this, everyone says, ‘Why, Neal?'” The player who is most despised is him. Blah blah blah.

Walker was left fuming after comments made by Maupay

He complained to the officials, while Pep Guardiola refused to comment afterwards

“Football is a game and fun to me.

“On the field, I’m just having fun and doing my hardest to win.

“I’ll say anything to make you uncomfortable or get you to overthink and make a mistake.

“People are unaware of the extreme levels of stress and anxiety involved.

“I think it works quite well and if I can get a reaction, great.”

It is true that Maupay stated he would never discuss a competitor’s “private life or family”.
