But the experts in the studio liked the behavior of Eric ten Hag.
In the third round of the Premier League, Manchester United beat Liverpool 2-1. Considering the extremely unsuccessful start of the season, which the Red Devils gave out, such an outcome of the meeting was seen as a real sensation. And it seems that the emotions of the participants of the match just rolled over.
After the final whistle, United head coach Erik ten Hag came to an interview at the Sky Sports studio and shocked the audience with obscene language. No one expected such rudeness from an intelligent Dutchman.
The host of the show had to apologize to the public!
Matches between United and Liverpool are always a big buzz. The two largest industrial centers in England have been competing with each other since time immemorial, and in football this enmity is perhaps most pronounced. In the circumstances leading up to the derby, it seemed like a moment of truth. Manchester, after two defeats at the start, by all means needed to achieve a positive result. And for Liverpool, the victory was extremely important, because the team of Jurgen Klopp started the championship with two draws.
It is not surprising that passions were already running high before the game. The center of the scandal was the impromptu Sky Sports studio, located on the edge of Old Trafford. Host David Jones, as well as pundits Gary Neville, Roy Keane and Jamie Carragher were calmly discussing pre-match handouts when Cristiano Ronaldo suddenly appeared in the frame in a tracksuit. By that time, it was already known that the Portuguese did not get into the starting lineup, and Keane was just talking about it.
The presenter met Krish with the words “The main star is with us today!” and invited Ronaldo to join the conversation. However, he only said hello to former teammates Keane and Neville, while completely ignoring Carragher. After that, the Portuguese returned to training.
“Have a good chat, huh, Jamie?” Jones joked.
He just destroyed me! Carragher replied.
– As it is, in fact, always happens with you, – the presenter continued to sneer.
Perhaps the negative reaction of Ronaldo to the former Liverpool defender is due to the fact that shortly before this, Carragher claimed that Cristiano would leave Manchester United within two weeks. However, to the credit of the expert, it must be said that he took the blow with humor.
However, the Carragher episode was just a warm-up before another scandal at Sky Studios. The headliner of the concert was United head coach Eric ten Haag, who came to Jones and his colleagues for a post-match interview. And then it suddenly turned out that a polite Dutchman, not only with a hairstyle, but also with a communication style reminiscent of Pep Guardiola, can be a bad guy.
– Today everything was tied to the mood, and we showed the proper attitude. It was the real fighting spirit. Today we saw what these guys can achieve, because they, ***** (damn – approx. Sportbox.ru), know how to play football! the specialist said live on Sky Sports.
For a split second, everyone present was taken aback. Then David Jones was found and apologized to viewers. But even here, the presenter found a place for a joke.
“I apologize for the vocabulary, I decided to drop a foul bomb on us,” Jones said guiltily.
Ten Haag seemed a little uncomfortable himself. After all, he was never someone famous for such expressions. But tough guys Neville, Keane and Carragher liked the toughness of the coach.
– It was cool! Would like more of this! Carragher responded.
Ten Haag’s emotions are easy to understand. He has been waiting for his first victory for a long time, and winning it in the main championship derby is worth a lot. It is quite possible that this triumph will give United confidence, and the team will finally return to the Champions League race.
