Crystal Palace fans were left furious with Daniel Muñoz after he swapped shirts with Erling Haaland at half-time.

The Eagles extended their winless streak to five games after being beaten 4-2 by Manchester City in Saturday’s early kick-off.

Jean-Philippe Mateta had given Palace the lead before City responded with goals from Kevin De Bruyne, Rico Lewis and Erling Haaland.

With the score tied 1-1 at halftime, Muñoz approached Haaland to grab his shirt and the Norwegian approved his request as they headed to the tunnel.

Palace fans expressed their feelings by booing the Colombian defender as he was taken off the pitch.

The final result will not have helped Muñoz justify his decision to change, after the Norwegian player took off his shirt first.

One fan wrote: ‘Yeah, I don’t like that at all. He will probably be behind Foden full-time.

Another added: “Seeing as Muñoz was signed less than three months ago from Genk, it’s not a good first impression for the full-back.”

Two others were only interested in an Irishman’s opinion on the move, with one asking: “I just want to know what Roy Keane thinks about this.” and a fourth adds: “Roy Keane won’t like that.”

One questioned why he couldn’t wait full time and called Muñoz a “washed up player,” while another asked “Why couldn’t they do it in the tunnel?”
