Erling Haaland mourns the death of his grandmother, 80, after she passed away at a nursing home in N

Man City Erling Haaland played in the club’s 3-1 win over FC Copenhagen on Tuesday night despite grieving over the loss of his grandmother on the weekend. 

The Norwegian forward played the full 90 minutes in Denmark as he battled on despite receiving tragic family news that Tone Rasdal – the mother of his father Alfie, passed away on Saturday at the age of 80.

An obituary for Rasdal read: ‘Our dear mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, grandmother and great-grandmother Tone Rasdal died peacefully today, aged 80.’

According to Norwegian outlet Nettavisen, Rasdal passed away at a nursing home in Sivdaheimen in Bryne, located on the south coast of Norway, with her funeral set to take place next week.
