Rio Ferdinand Criticizes Zirkzee for Passing Late Chance Against Liverpool
Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has criticized the club’s summer signing Joshua Zirkzee for his decision to pass the ball to Harry Maguire in the final moments of their dramatic 2-2 draw against Liverpool on Sunday.
Ferdinand believes Zirkzee should have taken matters into his own hands and attempted to score the game-winning goal himself, rather than looking for a pass to Maguire.
Speaking on the “Rio Ferdinand Presents” podcast, Ferdinand didn’t hold back in expressing his frustration.
He said, “After all of that, I would have gone into the changing room and said, ‘What kind of pass was that? We could’ve won the game.’”
He added, “Zirkzee is clearly lacking in confidence, but you have to make the right decision in those moments.
It’s all about the details, and you have to communicate with your teammates the way you want to be communicated with.”

Football legend Thierry Henry has reacted to Lionel Messi’s emotional response after Argentina lost the 2026 FIFA World Cup final to Spain.
It can be recalled that Spain defeated Argentina to lift the 2026 World Cup trophy. While Spain celebrated their victory, cameras captured Messi in tears after the final whistle.
Henry said Messi’s reaction showed just how much the game still means to him.
“Look at what it means to him. If you ever had any doubt about whether the guy still has any fire in his belly, look at him. Look at what it means.”
He added “You won already. And look at the guy. Look at the passion, desire and the love that he has for his country and how much he puts into it.”
Football legend Rio Ferdinand has shared his prediction ahead of the FIFA World Cup final between Spain and Argentina.
While many have backed different teams to lift the trophy, Ferdinand said some fans have underestimated Argentina’s quality.
He said “I find it difficult to bet against Argentina. They have demonstrated remarkable character, determination, and resilience. I believe people have been somewhat disrespectful by calling them an average team; they are not.”
He continued “I think it is inappropriate and disrespectful. If you are saying that, you clearly do not watch enough football, as they are an excellent team, and in challenging situations, they become even better and stronger. However, I do believe Spain will win the match.”
