Man City star Jack Grealish sends message to Romeo Beckham after showdown
Man City star Jack Grealish took to social media to send a message to Romeo Beckham after their 2-2 draw with Arsenal on Sunday (September 22).
The 29-year-old came on for the last 12 minutes as the current champions managed to salvage a vital draw against ten-men Arsenal.
Riccardo Calafiori’s wondergoal canceled out Erling Haaland’s early strike before Gabriel put the visitors ahead with a header from a well-worked set piece.
Leandro Trossard was then shown a second yellow card for kicking the ball away, forcing Mikel Arteta’s side to stick ten men behind the ball.
Then, with almost the last kick of the game, John Stones finally broke down a dogged Arsenal defence to salvage a point.
Jack Grealish sends gift to Romeo Beckham after Man City vs Arsenal
The England international is having a resurgence after a frustrating season in which he was unable to nail down a starting spot for Pep Guardiola’s side.
This season he’s managed to start three of City’s opening six games across all competitions but is yet to make a single goal contribution.
Beckham, 22, took to Instagram to thank Grealish for sending him a match-worn shirt from their 2-2 draw with title challengers Arsenal.
Grealish and City next face a League Cup home tie against Championship side Watford (September 24) as they attempt to wrestle the trophy away from rivals Liverpool.
They will then face Newcastle in the Premier League on Saturday (September 28) before a hectic October in which they play five games.
