Noel Gallagher revealed he was ‘left covered’ in blood after headbutt from Ruben Dias‘ dad.
Speaking to talkSPORT, Oasis’ former guitarist tells what happened after Manchester City’s third goal:
“As the third goal goes in, there is absolute bedlam in the stadium.”
“Where we sit, Ruben Dias’ family are a couple of boxes up. I’m jumping around like an idiot, passing my son around like the Premier League trophy, everyone’s lifting him up.”
“I turn around, Ruben Dias’ dad runs straight into me, headbutts me, I’m on the floor, covered in blood. I don’t see the last two minutes, I’ve got to get taken down by St John’s Ambulance to get sticked up”
“I’ve got stitches in my top lip, two black eyes. As I’m going down the corridor, Pep is running up crying and we hug each other.”
“He says, ‘What’s up with your face?’ And I said, ‘Go and be with your players!”
“If you saw me today, I look like I’ve just arrived home from the eighties at Elland Road, I look like I’ve had my head smashed in. It’s unbelievable.”
“Lots of City fans are asking me what happened and I’m just saying, ‘You’ll never guess’.”
“There’s not a mark on him [Dias’ dad]. He’s a big bear of a man. He almost knocked my teeth out.”
“I’ve got rehearsals today, but the good thing about that is I’ve got three Liverpool fans in my band!”
