It’s believed he was aiming it at Manchester City boss Guardiola, who had just asked the referee to book Verratti for a tackle.
That probably was not necessary, seeing as Guardiola speaks Italian thanks to his time playing for Roma and Brescia.
Verratti is one of two Italy internationals who started the match, along with Alessandro Florenzi, plus Moise Kean on the bench.
