Agbonlahor Calls Man United’s Šeško a Coward For Delaying His Penalty
Former Aston Villa forward Gabriel Agbonlahor has slammed Manchester United’s new signing Benjamin Šeško, branding him a coward after the club’s Carabao Cup exit to Grimsby Town.
United were knocked out by the League Two side on penalties after fighting back from two goals down to draw 2-2. The shootout ended 12-11, with several United players missing their efforts, including new arrival Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo.
Šeško, however, only stepped up as the 10th taker, after almost every other outfield player had already taken theirs, something Agbonlahor believes showed a lack of confidence.
Speaking on talkSPORT, the former England striker mocked the Slovenian forward, saying a team’s main striker should be among the first to step forward, not hiding until the end.
“How can your star striker let all the defenders take their penalties before him, then finally step up when the pressure is almost over?” Agbonlahor said. “For me, that’s cowardly.”
Morocco coach Mohamed Ouahbi speaks on the Netherlands’ elimination from the World Cup.
The coach explained why the team was eliminated. “Morocco has gained everybody’s respect now,” Ouahbi said, adding: “It’s not because of what we’ve said. We’ve now shown it.
“We completely dominated a Netherlands team. We had 70% possession, more shots and more expected goals. We controlled the match. We wanted to stay calm, play our game and believe that if it went to penalties, we had an exceptional goalkeeper. We didn’t turn the match into a chaotic battle. We controlled it.”
Nigerian footballer and former captain William Troost-Ekong revealed the standout player for him in the South African team during this World Cup.
He shared that Mbekezile Mbokazi really stood out in the World Cup match against Canada.
Despite their loss, he praised the team’s performance. “It speaks volumes that Mbokazi [Mbekezile] was the best player on the South African team. I believe Okon also had considerable possession of the ball.”
Poland footballer Robert Lewandowski’s new club has officially been revealed.
It can be noted that the player was involved in the ongoing summer transfer window, with negotiations taking place over his future.
The footballer will be joining Chicago Fire. It can be recalled that he visited the club two weeks ago, and the move has now been confirmed. The information was shared by football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
