Ten Hag Wishes to Avoid FC Twente Match
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has admitted he would have preferred not to face FC Twente in the Europa League. The Red Devils will meet the Dutch side on Wednesday night in their opening fixture.
Ten Hag, who spent seven years at Twente during his playing career, revealed his strong connection to the club, making the match emotionally challenging. In a pre-match interview, he said, “I would have preferred to play against someone else. It’s difficult to hurt something you love.” He also acknowledged the ties between Manchester United and Twente, including his assistant Rene Hake, who previously managed the Dutch team.
Nigerian footballer, Ademola Lookman speaks on Nigeria’s Bronze from the Afcon game.
It can be recalled that the country won the medal after their victory against Egypt.
Lookman stated during an interview “Everyone wanted to win the gold medal. We came for the trophy, but it didn’t happen.”
“We leave the tournament with the bronze medal, and that is enough.”
Moroccan player Brahim Díaz speaks after his missed penalty that resulted in the country’s defeat to Senegal.
The player expressed how sad he was about the missed penalty and blames himself. “My soul hurts. I dreamed of this title because of all the love you guys have given me, every message and every act of support that made me feel like I wasn’t alone.”
“I gave my all, with my heart leading the way. I messed up yesterday, and I’m fully responsible for it. I’m really sorry for what happened.”
Ghanaian Referee, Daniel Laryea, who officiated the Nigeria vs Morocco game in AFCON gets interviews and shared his experience.
The referee reveals how it was his first time in a semi final and was kind of nervous. “I’ve been to three AFCON tournaments, but this is the first time I’ve been in a semi-final.”
“So when coaches choose you for that game, they know your skills and what you can do. But of course, you feel a little nervous because of the level of the match.”
