In a rare display of frustration, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola was caught on camera pushing away his own coaching staff during an angry outburst at the fourth official, Craig Pawson, at half-time during City's Premier clash against Luton Town on Sunday.
It all happened towards the end of the first half when Man City were a goal down after Elijah Adebayo had given the Hatters a surprise lead.
A seething Guardiola was noticeably upset with some of the decisions by the officials, and at the end of the first 45 minutes, he, along with his City backroom staff, were vehemently protesting with Pawson over the time added on at the end of the first half.
At one stage, Guardiola was seen pointing his finger at the official and even pushed one of his own staff members away when they attempted to pull him back.
However, despite the controversy, Manchester City rallied in the second half to secure a 2-1 victory, courtesy of goals from Bernardo Silva and Jack Grealish. However, Guardiola's outburst was one of the talking points from the match.
The result ended City's four-match winless run in the Premier League.
Without the comeback, City manager Pep Guardiola would have stumbled into his worst streak of results in his coaching career, having never gone five matches without a win.
City was without Erling Haaland because he was sidelined with a foot injury but the return from suspension of Rodri and Grealish proved vital as the defending champions moved four points behind first-place Liverpool. City remained in fourth place, however, also behind Arsenal and Villa after 16 games.
