da aposte e ganhe: Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho is known to launch some subtle jibes at his opponents via the media.
da betsson: This week, the Portuguese coach reminded Liverpool fans of their team’s recent fumble in the Champions League.
Last week, Jurgen Klopp’s men took on Sevilla in a clash that could have sent the Reds into the last 16 of the competition.
The team stormed to a 3-0 lead inside the first 30 minutes, but in the second half they crumbled as their Spanish opponents nabbed a 3-3 draw.
On Tuesday night, United took on Watford at Vicarage Road in the Premier League and they found themselves in a similar predicament.
The Red Devils took a thee-goal lead and inside the final 20 minutes, nerves jangled as the Hornets pulled two goals back to make it 3-2.
Before the final whistle, though, Jesse Lingard wrapped up victory for the visitors with an impressive goal.
After the match, Mourinho carried out his post-match media duties and aimed a subtle swipe at Liverpool’s recent result in Europe.
The Liverpool Echo quotes the manager as saying:
“Watford gave us a couple of minutes where they felt anything could happen. This is football. Last week, Borussia Dortmund-Schalke, 4-0, 4-4. A couple of weeks ago, Liverpool (at Sevilla), 3-0, 3-3. That’s football.”
