Alf-Inge Haaland, father and representative of Erling Haaland, starred in a confrontation with part of the Santiago Bernabéu stands during the draw between Real Madrid and Manchester City (1-1) in the first leg of the Champions League semifinals. The Norwegian’s father ended up being evicted from a box in the white stadium, which he shared with the player’s friends and family. The Real Madrid version is that Alfie Haaland and his companions were transferred to another box, since they were causing problems with club members there.
