Gary Lineker and Manchester City’s twitter account have been going back and forth since City’s draw against Liverpool earlier this evening. Gary thought he had made a brilliant joke about Gabriel Jesus and his pose in Man City’s tweet after the game but Man City went 1 step further.
Looking at this photo, is this the second coming of Jesus? https://t.co/eROSmMUEdw

The City admin absolutely destroyed Gary, bringing up his infamous incident on the pitch from international duty and it instantly went viral with so many people absolutely loving the jest.
We all get urges on the pitch sometimes Gary 😉 https://t.co/tMnHJ2ylJ9 pic.twitter.com/dgf6Y52HaR

Gary seemed to find the whole thing funny, replying himself after just 10 minutes saying
“Sh*t happens”
Shit happens 🤣 https://t.co/nRasfyGm8T
