Sergio Aguero widely criticized for putting his hand on the shoulder of a female official

Manchester City’s Sergio Aguero has been subject to widespread criticism after he placed his hand on the shoulder of a lineswoman as he challenged her ruling on Sunday.

The Manchester City forward was protesting a decision made by Sian Massey-Ellis, who had signalled for a throw-in to Arsenal.

Aguero, who was visibly frustrated, confronted the official before grabbing her on the upper shoulder, close to her neck.

Massey-Ellis shrugged Aguero off before he jogged away and the game continued.

There were no formal consequences for Aguero during the match, but his behaviour was caught by television cameras and widely shared on social media.
