the crude simulation of Walker, who tried to exclude Hojlund by collapsing to the ground

During the derby between Manchester City and Manchester United this Sunday in the Premier League, Kyle Walker attempted a rather ridiculous simulation. The Skyblues defender threw himself to the ground pretending to have been injured by Rasmus Hojlund. Both players ultimately received a warning.

In the age of video arbitration, this type of bluff no longer has any chance of working. But some still continue to try their luck. Kyle Walker recalled this during the derby between Manchester City and Manchester United this Sunday in the Premier League. At the end of the first period, the Skyblues defender carried out a particularly crude simulation to try to exclude Rasmus Hojlund, the Red Devils center forward.

The scene took place in the 39th. Walker first fouled Hojlund, who didn't like it at all. Very upset, the Norwegian striker came to explain it to the English full-back by pressing his forehead to his.

The referee said a few words to Walker

After responding verbally, the City captain suddenly collapsed to the ground holding his head, as if his opponent had headbutted him, which is clearly not the case. The replays even ridicule Kyle Walker's attempt, which sparks a wave of mockery on social networks.

Anthony Taylor, the referee of the match, did not fall into the trap. After reprimanding the two belligerents, the English official gave them each a yellow card. Before addressing a few words to the Three Lions player, asking him not to reproduce this type of simulation during the rest of the game. Otherwise, you'll have to return to the locker room faster than expected.
