Shchetinin Says He’s Sad He Didn’t Get to Play Against Osimhen in Match Against Super Eagles
Russia’s Mikhail Shchetinin has expressed disappointment over Victor Osimhen’s absence during their international friendly clash with Nigeria on Friday night. The Super Eagles played out a 1-1 draw against Russia at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, but Osimhen, one of Nigeria’s key strikers, was not part of the squad.
Speaking after the match, Shchetinin admitted he had been looking forward to going up against the Napoli forward, who recently wrapped up a loan spell at Galatasaray. “It’s a bit of a letdown that some of their top players didn’t come,” he told Championat. “I really wanted to see Osimhen. It would’ve been an exciting challenge.”
He also praised the Nigerian team, mentioning Victor Boniface among the players who impressed him during the encounter. Sources say Osimhen was left out of the squad by coach Eric Chelle as the striker is currently focused on settling his next club move after his loan deal in Turkey ended.
Former English footballer, Jamie Redknapp, makes bold suggestion regarding Mohamed Salah to leave the club, Liverpool.
The suggestion came after Liverpool manager Arne Slot criticized the player — a move Redknapp called out following Salah’s benching in the last match.
The former player shared “I don’t necessarily think in January. I just think we have got to let this settle. But I don’t foresee that he will see out the two years of his contract. I think it might be more in the summer.”
Arsenal football manager Mikel Arteta speaks on the team’s defeat against Aston Villa, 2–1, in their match on Saturday.
It can be recalled that Aston Villa scored a goal in the first half, but Arsenal scored back in the second half. After equalizing, Aston Villa scored another goal.
“In the first half we had moments, obviously had the best chance after a foul on Riccy [Calafiori] that Watkins goes through,” Arteta said.
“In the second half we started really well. Scored a goal and we were really dominant.”
Former Liverpool player, Jamie Carragher, speaks on Arsenal’s next match and claims that their game against Aston Villa will be challenging and described it as a test for the team to see how well they perform.
“Arsenal have looked the best team in the league by a long way so far this season, but Man City are still only five points behind.
There’s a long way to go and Arsenal will need to keep their heads! It could be tested tomorrow against Aston Villa!!”
