Pep Guardiola shocked Community Shield viewers by throwing his water bottle to the ground after a goalless first half before storming down the Wembley tunnel.
His team, Manchester City, endured a frustrating first 45 minutes against Man United in the season opener this afternoon.
And although the match was on the line, Guardiola reacted angrily to the team’s performance when the whistle blew.
Manchester City’s manager was furious when the players left the pitch, apparently because goalkeeper Ederson had kicked the ball out of bounds just before half-time.
Guardiola took his frustrations out on City’s goalkeeping coach and he did so in no subtle way: he berated the keeper in front of thousands of fans at Wembley.

The two teams faced off this afternoon in the Community in what was the third Manchester derby under the arches in the past 15 months.
The Red Devils recently won 2-1 in the FA Cup final in May, which was a nice icing on the cake of Erik Ten Hag’s poor season.
Alejandro Garnacho gave Old Trafford the lead after half an hour, before England international Kobbie Mainoo doubled the lead in the 39th minute, making the teenager a real ‘man of the match’.
City’s Jeremy Doku made sure the team’s many supporters could cheer with a consolation goal in the 87th minute.
A year earlier, it was City who celebrated victory at Wembley with a 2-1 win over United, kicked off by the fastest goal in FA Cup final history.
Ilkay Gundogan gave Guardiola’s side the lead within 12 seconds and the Premier League champions never looked back, claiming second prize in a season in which they won three games.
