Memes of Erling Haaland are lighting up social media after his outburst at referee Simon Hooper during Manchester City's 3-3 draw with Tottenham.
Haaland was incandescent at Hooper when he pulled play back for a free-kick while Jack Grealish ran through towards goal in the dying moments, having given advantage after a foul on Haaland.
His livid expressing while remonstrating with Hooper is already an iconic photo, encapsulating the emotional stresses of elite sport while also shining a light on the abuse officials receive.
It's little surprise that internet creatives have pounced on the opportunity to produce memes as a result, making the most of Haaland's dramatic expression.
One of them shows Haaland's enraged face plastered on to an image of Taylor Armstrong from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, in a popular meme format which shows often her shouting and pointing her finger at a confused cat.
