Pep waved a finger at Henderson as he walked off

City dominated possession as Palace defended like Spartans before hitting on the break.

But there was controversy when Henderson handled the ball outside his box, narrowly avoiding a red card thanks to a VAR review.

He then saved a penalty from Omar Marmoush just moments later.

And Henderson then delighted commentator John Murray when he donned a surprise baseball cap to block out the sun during the second half.

Later on, the party began after Oliver Glasner’s men survived 10 minutes of City onslaught in added time.

However, cameras quickly panned to Guardiola as he engaged in a war of words with Henderson.

Neither man appeared willing to back down, with Guardiola appearing peeved as Henderson pumped his arms in celebration.

The Palace goalie was eventually pulled away before going to embrace manager Oliver Glasner.

Fans were quick to react to the incident on social media.

One said: “Haha Hendo what a guy.”
