The goalkeeper was attacked as he made his way out of the field.
Thousands of Man City fans ran onto the pitch at the end of the game to celebrate their title win.
The answer to the question of whether players got off the pitch safely is not known. The goalkeeper was attacked. I think those questions should be directed to Manchester City.
Asked about the condition of the man, Gerrard said they were going to check on him.
Manchester City would like to sincerely apologize to Robin Olsen, who was attacked by fans after the final whistle at today's match.
The individual responsible will be banned from the stadium for the rest of their lives after the club launched an immediate investigation.
Villa later released a statement saying that Olsen is completely fine, but that nobody was sure if the incident was intentional or an accident. Villa will not be making a complaint about the matter.

After coming from two goals down to beat Villa, City retained their premier league title.
Three goals in five minutes late in the game turned the match and the title race on its head as substitute Ilkay Gundogan scored two, either side of Rodri's strike. It was only a victory over Wolves that would have been enough for City.
