Worrying moment man sprints across pitch towards Erling Haaland before Premier League cult hero acts as human shield

THIS is the horror moment a fan charged towards Erling Haaland – only to be stopped by a Premier League cult hero.

The Manchester City star was back amongst the goals last night as Norway beat Moldova 5-0 in their World Cup qualifying opener.

But their win was overshadowed by shocking scenes in the second-half after Haaland was subbed with 78 minutes on the clock.

The striker was watching the rest of the game from the dugout when a pitch invader charged onto the field.

He sprinted over to the Norway dugout while appearing to reach into his pocket.

Haaland was sat in the end seat nearest the man when he was tackled by Brede Hangeland.

The former defender-turned-Norway assistant coach grabbed the pitch invader and pushed him away.

Security then intervened and carried the man away, who was still trying wriggle free.

Fans called the incident “terrifying” and “scary”.

Hangelandspent seven seasons at Fulham, playing 270 times for the club between 2008 and 2014.

He also had a brief spell at Crystal Palace before retiring in 2016.
