With football on the rise in the United States, it’s a shame to see this type of behavior from one of the more revered managers in the international game. I understand being upset about the outcome of a game, or the play during it, but refusing to shake hands is childish and immature. I’d have a lot more respect for Guardiola if he had given Porter a hand crusher and told him off.
