Manchester City’s Manel Estiarte posts footage of ‘unacceptable’ team bus attack

Manchester City coach Manel Estiarte has posted footage of the attack on the team bus on its way to Anfield on Wednesday night.

The sound of objects striking the vehicle can be heard in the video posted on Instagram by Estiarte, filmed from inside the bus as it drives slowly towards the stadium for the Champions League quarterfinal match.

He responded to his own video, writing: “No words. Unacceptable.”

Merseyside Police are conducting inquiries to identify those responsible for throwing objects at the bus, while Liverpool has condemned the attack and vowed to support City in establishing the facts of what occurred.

The City bus was deemed unusable for the return journey because of the damage caused to it, and the club had to supply a replacement.

Press Association Sport reports that UEFA’s disciplinary body is awaiting reports before deciding whether to open a case.

Despite the attack on the bus taking place in the streets surrounding Anfield, there is scope for European football’s governing body to take action should it deem to be somewhere the host club controls.

WHAT TRUE FAITH LOOK LIKE

Ben Ukeme Key Scripture “But without faith it is impossible to please Him…” — Hebrews 11:6 “The just shall live by faith.” — Habakkuk 2:4 True faith is more than words. It is more than emotion. It is more than saying, “I believe.” True faith is visible. It shows up in how we live, how we respond, and how we obey God. Let us look at what true faith really looks like. 1. TRUE FAITH OBEYS GOD COMPLETELY “By faith Abraham obeyed…” — Hebrews 11:8 Faith is not passive. It moves. Abraham did not just believe God — he acted on what God said.
