Man City superstar Haaland censored after interview gaffe (VIDEO)

The striker scored twice on his Premier League debut against West Ham

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has already had a taste of strict British censorship after Sky Sports reprimanded him for swearing twice in a post-match interview and told him to mind his language.

Previously ridiculed for his misses in a Community Shield loss to Liverpool last time out, Haaland silenced his critics with a Premier League debut brace as defending champions City topped West Ham 2-0 at the London Stadium on Sunday. 

While Haaland might have been pleased by becoming the first City player since the legendary Sergio Aguero to score twice on his debut for the Mancunians, he was clearly deflated by not bagging a hat trick, which he communicated in his post-match interview. 

Admitting that he was a "little down" after his display in the Liverpool defeat, Haaland humbly accepted he had made a "good start" to life in the English top flight.

When asked whether he was disappointed not to have netted a hat trick, though, he instead put the blame on himself rather than his coach Pep Guardiola, who brought him off in the 78th minute for positional rival Julian Alvarez.

"If you saw Gundo [Ilkay Gundogan] right before I went off, I should’ve been there," he noted. "So it was a bit s*** but that’s how it is."
