Erling Haaland has hit back at Marc Cucurella's infamous chant at Euro 2024 about him after scoring the first goal against Chelsea in a 2-0 win at Manchester City's opening Premier League match.
Cucurella had a remarkable summer as he helped Spain win Euro 2024 in Germany. During the celebrations, Cucurella was heard singing his own chant but changing the words to take aim at Haaland. He sang, "Cucu cucu-rella, he eats paella, Cucu cucu-rella he drinks Estrella, Haaland you’d better tremble because Cucurella is coming!”
However, in Manchester City's first game, Haaland opened the scoring for City in London with his fifth goal from three opening-day appearances in English football. Haaland mocked Cucurella after the game.
"He is a funny man. Last season, he asked for my shirt. And this summer he sings a song about me."
