00:01:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
You dropped out last minute. i know. I know the feeling.
00:01:54

Yeah, children, hey?

Global Sports Podcast Network

00:01:56
Dan King
Being a parent.
00:01:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
Children. They have kids, they say.
00:01:58
Dan King
But still, what a game. What a game. So let's start.
00:02:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
What again?
00:02:02
Dan King
What do you line up, Sam? Did any of us get it right? The line up's right.
00:02:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
Apart from Clive starting from the bench, uh...
00:02:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think, yeah. pretty Well, Evan Nilsson obviously being back, we kind of expected it.
00:02:12
Dan King
Yeah.
00:02:15
Dan King
Oh, that was a bit of a spite
00:02:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
We said if he's 100%, he'll definitely start, which happened. And as Irola said in his interview, post-match interview, ah yeah Evan Nilsson gave a lot more than Irola thought he could, you
VAR Controversy Discussion
00:02:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
know.
00:02:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
um
00:02:30
Dan King
It's good, isn't it?
00:02:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
it was it was It was brilliant. I mean... The atmosphere for the full 120 minutes, I cannot describe it. It was just for our listeners who are also our followers on social media. They could see that we were going live from the stadium, from the ground.
00:02:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
And it was just nonstop singing, chanting, ah booing as well. and yeah I mean, especially, you know, after being denied two goals by the VAR again, feeling like we're billy being bullied and then beating beating Wolves, beating the referee and beating the VAR.
00:03:08
Dan King
Let's start with the goal then. What do you think about the goal? It's a game. ah James Hill plays a ball into Semenya. Semenya shoots, parries it out. Goal.
00:03:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
Evan Nilsson. So... um Me being in the north stand for this game, right, obviously Bournemouth was attacking towards the other side and watching it from behind, from the back.
00:03:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think before we scored the goal, that was only second time that Bournemouth tried to play the ball on the right side. For the rest of the halftime, it felt like Bournemouth was pushing all the time on the left-hand side. And I even said it multiple amounts of times, just switch the side, change the side, switch the side.
00:03:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
And they kept pushing to the left. And Semenyo was looking from from the stance, was looking like he was bored. He wanted to play, but he didn't get the ball. Maybe that was a tactic. Maybe maybe maybe that was a strategy, yeah.
00:04:02
Dan King
strategy It's a strategy. Bournemouth, they do it quite often, like different ones, where they attack, overload one side for the first 15 minutes and then change it up.
00:04:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
And then...
00:04:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, but this was overloaded like for like 37 minutes.
00:04:16
Dan King
Yeah, all still part of the tactic.
00:04:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
It was crazy. And then I was expecting Semenya to score. Obviously, we we gave our predictions that Semenya will score, and which he didn't, unfortunately.
00:04:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
But Evan Ilsen was right place, right time.
00:04:30
Dan King
but me He got man of the match to the menu, dude.
00:04:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
He got the man of the match. Yeah, the ah that's true.
00:04:35
Dan King
Yeah.
00:04:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
um i
00:04:39
Dan King
I think there's other people, but yeah.
00:04:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah I think there were other people. I think if you asked me, I would have given it to Tyler Adams.
00:04:44
Dan King
Agreed.
00:04:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
He... that That guy didn't stop running. He didn't stop running.
00:04:51
Dan King
Captain of America.
00:04:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
It...
00:04:53
Dan King
He's Captain America. He just is everywhere. Like, he's brilliant. um So, come on, we've got to get on to the big point.
00:05:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
We've got... No, we...
00:05:03
Dan King
and What was it like in the stadium for eight minutes waiting for this VAR decision?
00:05:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
So, oh yeah, the VAR, right.
00:05:12
Dan King
So, if you don't know, Bournemouth scored another goal from a corner.
00:05:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
It was... So obviously, we scored the second goal. Kerkers, well, Kerkers was the goal scorer, right? And that was one of my predictions. Actually, I said, why not?
00:05:23
Dan King
It was Housen.
00:05:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
And...
00:05:24
Dan King
It was Housen who scored the goal.
00:05:26
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, basically, so what what I usually do when it's a VAR decision, we can't see from the stands what's happening. So I play the game on my phone and we watch it on the phone, right? Me and the fans around me.
00:05:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
So... We saw that clearly, well, Kerk has hit the ball and the ball got stuck between Halsen's shoulder and the post.
00:05:46
Dan King
ye
00:05:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
So basically, yeah, he he pushed the ball in. Once they this they established that it wasn't a handball, right, then they were looking for offside.
00:05:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
And apparently only, i don't know, two centimetres of Kerk's boot was offside, which was, don't know.
00:06:03
Dan King
i'm still I'm still confused about it because, yeah, well, I think it was eight minutes.
00:06:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
But seven minutes this is too long.
00:06:11
Dan King
It's eight minutes and however there was only seven minutes of added time. Explain that to me.
00:06:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Especially that, because they were wasting time. ah There were, I mean, definitely that should have been 10 minutes, if you ask me.
00:06:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
nine, ten minutes. um So whatever the VAR is and all that. And I had a ah guy next to me saying that they should do it like in bloody rugby. They stop the time whenever something happens. And that's and it ridiculous. I mean, numerous amount of times ah we we were just chanting, this is embarrassing and you're in football. And it just, you know, it it just feels every single time worse and worse. And why always Bournemouth gets their goals overturned?
00:06:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's my question, you know? You feel yes like being bullied, no?
00:06:59
Dan King
I don't know.
00:07:04
Dan King
I just feel like um probably a bit like Ukraine at the moment being bullied by America, which is the referee.
00:07:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, Ozzy got scared when you when you mentioned Ukraine.
00:07:12
Dan King
yeah No, I don't know. i just think it's like, yeah, I just, we're just unfortunate. I think the VAR room's all the way in London, isn't it? So it's a bit far away and they're not thinking favourably of us.
00:07:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, but it makes you think really like I've never seen, okay, I've seen somebody checking the VAR. I've seen referees after two, three minutes. Obviously, the game didn't stop. The game carried on. So the first break of play, yes, they would go and check the VAR.
00:07:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
But not having to be checking it for seven, eight minutes, it's it's just I think this is the longest time ever that they they were checking it.
00:07:52
Dan King
I felt sorry for the referee. The referee had to call the managers over um and speak to them to explain the automatic offside didn't work. So that failed.
00:08:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, yeah, that's something else. Yeah, oh, my God.
00:08:05
Dan King
So it's not the referee's fault.
00:08:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's embarrassing.
00:08:06
Dan King
um You can see on the TV, it kind of looked, ah he felt embarrassed himself, but what could he do? He's waiting for a decision in his ear. ah Yeah, got overturned. Possibly the correct decision. I just haven't seen... Sometimes when you look at it and it's taking that long, your question, is it clear and obvious?
00:08:25
Dan King
And I know that's not a part of the rule when it comes to offside, but it shouldn't be taking that long. I've heard lots of different things online. Maybe it should be limited to a minute. Maybe, like...
00:08:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I've seen that as well. yeah
00:08:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah it's i mean but Yeah, but that puts the pressure again. now My question is, what's the job of referee nowadays if the decisions are being made in the VR room?
00:08:38
Dan King
I just...
00:08:48
Dan King
Hmm.
00:08:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
This is the thing, you know?
00:08:50
Dan King
We should have a drone as a referee, really, and just following it around. That's see that's probably in a new way. Who knows?
00:08:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, maybe in the future, yeah. But it's... I don't know. I really hope they will vote... and get rid of the VAR.
00:09:07
Dan King
They won't. They won't. I think the last vote was 19 clubs favoured for it. We voted for it, so we've got to... And still voting for it, so... and I don't think that's changing.
00:09:18
Dan King
I think it gives a bit more financial security. I don't know. that
00:09:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:09:24
Dan King
And it's a good talking point.
00:09:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
Right.
00:09:25
Dan King
talking points Talking points brings money to the Premier League.
00:09:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, yeah, that's true. And the bigger clubs playing in the Europe, that brings more money. the Premier League and that's why FA Cup somehow doesn't want to be in the big competition.
Player Performance Analysis
00:09:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
Right, but let's go for a quick break and we'll be back to talk a bit more about the game from Saturday.
00:10:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
We're back after the message from our sponsors. um So I want ask you Alex Scott, what kind of game do you think he had?
00:11:07
Dan King
Average. A better game for him, but still average. Like, yeah. It was interesting. I've got to be careful. i've been People starting to compare that.
00:11:19
Dan King
People bashing Alex Scott like they did for Neto, ah the goalie, and like but they did for other players.
00:11:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:11:28
Dan King
I'm not debating his ability. I'm not debating his ability. I just feel where we are in our Premier League push... He is too inconsistent for us and he needs increase his work rate. Maybe that will come with games.
00:11:44
Dan King
have Still not certain. Not certain for Europa or European team yet.
00:11:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
Do you think that's maybe because he doesn't play in his natural position? I mean, obviously, we know that Iriola is a magician when it comes to changing, um transitioning players' positions and obviously seeing Ryan Christie playing as a winger before Iriola and now playing as a CDM um and getting the best out of him.
00:12:00
Dan King
What is...
00:12:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
and Do you think that's maybe the issue?
00:12:18
Dan King
All right. Wow. Possibly. But where would you say his main position is? Number 10? Hmm.
00:12:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, I would say number 10, yeah. but sort But let's say some central attacking central midfielder. Right? Central attacking midfielder. You can put it that way.
00:12:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah More sort of a playmaker ah with more offensive style of play rather than um running back. It reminds me of one of the Serbian players, actually, Milinkovic Savic. Yeah.
00:12:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
And this was a problem. Now, you mentioned in the last game when Bournemouth conceded, against Wolves, it was his fault because he didn't follow the player back. And the same thing happened in the Euros last year when we conceded to Slovenia, uh, because he just didn't follow his player.
00:13:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
He didn't run back and you could see him walking. So, um,
00:13:16
Dan King
I think you might be the only one who watched that game. I'll be honest, I didn't watch that one.
00:13:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
that's all right. Nevermind. Well, I was in Germany. Um, our dear listeners who have listening have been listening to us from the beginning, they they are aware that I was in in the Euros last year. I went to watch the Euros in Germany and that was fun.
00:13:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah Especially the England game um against Serbia. But this is not the time to talk about it.
00:13:41
Dan King
No. well Okay, let's get on to the goal.
00:13:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
price So we we will definitely do an episode regarding the game in November this year where England will be ah hosting in Wembley against Serbia and
00:13:43
Dan King
Let's get on to Kuna's
00:13:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I'll be there again.
00:13:55
Dan King
Mm-hmm.
00:13:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
So, right, so back to Alex Scott. So, yeah, I think he's maybe playing him in the wrong position and um he just cannot find his place. If Bournemouth would play a different kind of formation, maybe with three in the middle and two people more on the wings, um i'm I'm talking about, let's say, like 4-3-3 holding formation.
00:14:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think Alex Scott would be better... in in that one rather than playing in 4-2-3-1. don't know. This is my opinion.
00:14:27
Dan King
Yeah.
00:14:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah But I think he had a solid game. and um but ah As I said, I could see him starting. You expected Ben Winter, but it didn't happen. um And yeah, apart from him, Evan Nilsson, I was so glad that he scored on his on his you know return.
00:14:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
It means a lot, not just for the club. It means a lot to him.
00:14:52
Dan King
I think he just stretches game, doesn't he?
00:14:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
if we
00:14:53
Dan King
just He comes in, he plays it look he's a little bit cleverer than Dango. Dango's done amazing physically, but Evan Nilsson's a clever striker.
00:14:58
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:15:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, he's he's positioning, his attacking positioning is is is much better. and And, you know, he's just better, better player, better player, you can all say. Maybe Dango, you know, plays better on the wing, where Evan Nielsen would probably do nothing because he's just a proper striker, number nine.
00:15:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
um Apart from him, i think James Hill had a good game as a centre-back. He was solid. considering that obviously their star player, Cunha, was sort of pushing against Hill for most of the game.
00:15:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
and
00:15:36
Dan King
I saw Tyler Adams come in as well on him. Tyler Adams had a job of coming support James Hill on Kuna and Kuna did not like that.
00:15:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, but but look at what happened. I mean...
Missed Opportunities & Penalty Insights
00:15:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
Now, to move on to the Wolves goal, right, it was it was it was a stunning shot. It was it was a screamer.
00:15:53
Dan King
Yeah.
00:15:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
That was 30, 35 yards, and everyone went silent in the stands. I'm not going to lie. It was just like, what the hell did just happen? And you can just see the ball going and changing the direction.
00:16:03
Dan King
Undeserved.
00:16:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
i was like, oh, my God. And, yeah, he only needed one chance, and that's it. Any other time, it's like – anyway, as as I said earlier,
00:16:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
if we didn't win this game, we didn't go through. I would feel like we would have been robbed because even their goalkeeper, I have to take my hat off that Sam Johnston was brilliant, uh, especially in the extra time where he managed to, to have a couple of amazing saves, uh, headers from Sinistera and Lewis cook.
00:16:21
Dan King
Lewis Cook should have scored that
00:16:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I know, I know, I know. Crazy, crazy. And, um, luckily we got in, um,
00:16:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
You obviously watching it from the telly with with your best mate, Dan Lewis. Hello, Dan.
00:16:52
Dan King
yeah
00:16:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
Thanks for listening. um what was your what What was your view of the game?
00:16:59
Dan King
um ah Exactly the same. I think we were but had so many chances. i I didn't see Wolves coming into the game, especially in extra time. I felt like they were going to sit they were already sitting back for...
00:17:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, they were parking the bus and that's it. They were just waiting for the penalties, basically. Because that's the game of luck. And
00:17:17
Dan King
i just it just It was just becoming a little bit frustrating. We just couldn't. It was so many, almost, so close. And I was thinking to myself, like you, we've got to win this game.
00:17:28
Dan King
But when you think like that, you know what usually happens. You tend to lose. It's just what football is like, isn't it? You need to finish your chances to win the game. It wasn't happening.
00:17:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
That wasn't happening.
00:17:40
Dan King
So...
00:17:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
And there was one chance, I think it was in the regular time when, you remember that Tavernier was literally on the penalty spot with the ball alone and he managed to he he decided to pass to Semeny instead of to finish.
00:17:41
Dan King
and
00:17:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
you remember that?
00:17:55
Dan King
Yes, well, partially. I've probably, yeah. it's They're the decision-making, so we're just not happening right at the moment. um
00:18:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
Don't get me wrong. Tav had a good game. But that should have been a goal. That should have been a finish from Tav.
00:18:13
Dan King
This is exactly It's the decision-making confidence in that box. We're just not, it's just not happening at the moment, but... Give it a bit of time, we've won.
00:18:24
Dan King
Penalty to help us, confidence has grown. Penalty takers, that was interesting.
00:18:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
Penalty takers. That was interesting. Yeah. ah Let's talk about penalties before another another a break. um from um from our sponsors. But before we go to the actual break, um I want to ask you one more thing.
00:18:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
What did you think of that VAR against Hausson and potential red card?
00:18:51
Dan King
What, the one against Howson?
00:18:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, no, no, no, no. When, when I think it was near the end, it was ah when I think it was Sarabi on the left side passed the ball to Cunha and Cunha just kicked it and started running it in-house and tackled him.
00:19:00
Dan King
Oh, yeah.
00:19:06
Dan King
Oh, no. Clear. Very clear. Yellow at tops. He was running away from the goal, not running towards it. And when he was doing the VHR check, you're just like, oh, my. But no.
00:19:17
Dan King
I had a different position. so they you could see it clearly because it kept showing the highlights on TV and you're like, they can't get that.
00:19:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
You could say that.
00:19:24
Dan King
Okay.
00:19:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think how I would feel if I was on the pitch, if that decision got overturned and Howsen got the red card, I would have left the pitch. It would have just been too much, I think.
00:19:37
Dan King
Hmm.
00:19:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah But yeah, luckily, luckily he only got the yellow card, but I think that means that he's not available for the next game.
00:19:44
Dan King
No, Halson, I'm not too sure on that one.
00:19:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:19:47
Dan King
I knew Kirk has, but Halson.
00:19:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
Kirkus will miss the next the next game against... against well against the opponent that we're going after the ad break.
00:19:53
Dan King
Man's... Yeah.
00:19:58
Global Sports Podcast Network
Let's go on a quick one.
FA Cup Preview & Penalty Dynamics

Hi. I just always think it's. I wonder, I would love to know the mentality. they errius they've been practicing their penalties every training session. So that's quite interesting.
00:21:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:21:51
Dan King
Um, I wonder if people nominate theirself to go forward.
00:21:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:21:58
Dan King
thought obviously Halston, it's quite an odd, um, strange one, but he's confident.
00:22:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, i didn't expect him to to. And when I saw him going towards the ball, I didn't feel that confident. I'm not going to lie. i
00:22:10
Dan King
He's only, he's only 19 as well. The pressure that put on him, um, You don't usually do. Obviously, he missed. um I felt confident with Kepa. um Well, let's talk about, first of all, my favourite moment of the game, Dango's penalty.
00:22:27
Dan King
penalty
00:22:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, yes. Oh, yes. I think that was better than than than the red card from Cunha. Yeah, that that it was just, I don't know, not even us expected what he was going to do. He put the ball, he just turned around and he scored and that's it. And I don't think anyone was ready.
00:22:47
Dan King
It reminded me of playing at like Little Down or something like that where you only allowed one step to take a penalty.
00:22:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, yeah, that's it.
00:22:53
Dan King
And it was like that.
00:22:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
From the knee, we say it from the knee, from the knee.
00:22:56
Dan King
Yeah.
00:22:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:22:58
Dan King
It was.
00:22:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
though There was a funny moment, right, when the penalty shootout started because obviously Wolves started first.
00:22:59
Dan King
Yeah.
00:23:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
um So Strand Larsson scored for Wolves. And as the keeper were keepers were exchanging, Kepa came to to wait in the same spot where Johnston was waiting um when the first penalty was taken, right?
00:23:21
Global Sports Podcast Network
So what was funny, Kepa saw the bottle of Sam Johnston right And he had on the bottle written the penalty takers and the sides they were going to shoot.
00:23:31
Dan King
Yeah.
00:23:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
Kluivert scored. he's ah he's a He's a daddy for penalties. I'm not going to lie. he's he's just He's just so cool. um And you could see, if you if you watch it again through the highlights, you could see that after his penalty, Kepa went up to him and whispered.
00:23:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'm not sure ah if if he did for all the players, but he whispered who is going to shoot where. Basically, okay, well, probably he said, I know, he's got written on the bottle, the Utara is going to shoot left and whatever, so just tell them to be aware of it.
00:23:58
Dan King
yeah
00:24:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
And um yeah, and then the obviously they scored four, Hausson, four penalty takers for us. I swear to God, I wasn't even looking at at the screen.
00:24:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
I didn't even know that if Doherty scores, they are going through.
00:24:20
Dan King
Yeah.
00:24:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
i didn't. i was just I was just looking at the goal and what was happening there. And Hausen missed. So I thought, OK, well, we still have chance.
00:24:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
And then Doherty for the match ball, winning one, he missed whole goal. And I'm thinking like, wait, what did this just happen? Cookie and yeah, the rest, they missed another one. And it had to be done. But we we were millimeters away from a loss.
00:24:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
Millimeters away.
00:24:52
Dan King
i fought I thought we were out. As soon as we missed that, I thought Doherty's going to score.
00:24:58
Dan King
But that's me being a pessimistic. But it didn't happen. And we are through to the quarterfinals. so I believe it's the third time, but definitely the first time in my lifetime, um to ever bid.
00:25:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, for the third time yeah for the third time ah playing the quarterfinals.
00:25:14
Dan King
One match away from Wembley.
00:25:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
One match away from Wembley. It sounds a bit unreal, but we've beaten City already this season.
00:25:24
Dan King
Comfortably. ah know the final score doesn't show that, but we were strong.
00:25:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
a
00:25:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
We, yeah, and um if you remember, Kirk is actually in that game had two assists now. We're going to be without Kirk is, you know, next FA Cup game.
00:25:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:25:39
Dan King
I can't believe that.
00:25:40
Dan King
i can't believe that. He handled it so well. I don't know if you've seen a role.
00:25:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:25:45
Dan King
but He was saying like he should be praised by the way he's been punched, he's been kicked when he's down, he's been headbutted, he hasn't reacted. However, he's got a yellow card and he's missing the quarterfinal.
00:25:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, tell you something. That's his Serbian side, right? Serbian people don't go down that easy. And the it's yeah, he he was right. I mean, if if you look at what happened, what Cunha did was, don't know, I couldn't explain it.
00:26:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
he He didn't really need that. not Not as a team leader.
00:26:17
Dan King
He refused to come off the pitch. He refused to come off the pitch as well. is The shocking thing is, and I said to you in the last one ah but podcast, is that if he gets the same ban as Sabani, that is a joke.
00:26:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
Okay.
00:26:33
Dan King
Because Sabani went, obviously we can go into it, Sabani got the ball and then the ball knocked him into the other player. And that's called a reckless challenge. And that's free games. If not more because he got at the beginning of the game. So Aurelis has four.
00:26:48
Dan King
So Kuhner currently has just three games. Bam. He not only headbutted, not only punched, not only kicked. He then refused to go off the pitch.
00:26:58
Global Sports Podcast Network
he refused to go off the pitch. And and and there were even at the end of the game, you could see them still having arguments um between between two teams. And um if you look at, I mean, Wolves without Cunha is probably championship team. I'm not going to lie. He's he's he's the team leader and and he's a great player.
00:27:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
He is a great player. But his behavior, you know, doesn't make him a great player. And, the you know, to kick off like that...
00:27:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't know.
00:27:29
Dan King
Not good for him.
00:27:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
But I'm i'm glad it didn' it didn't happen to us.
00:27:30
Dan King
but And I also think Kerkers has impressed me there, shown his mentality.
00:27:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
It wasn't any of our players that reacted like that because i would have been gutted.
00:27:41
Dan King
because Kerkers is quite a vicious player. Not vicious, but strong into a challenge.
00:27:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, yeah, aggressive.
00:27:49
Dan King
and Aggressive, yeah, that's the word I was looking for. um and But it doesn't ever it doesn't appear that it flips out at all. so
00:27:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
He didn't explode. That's it. It was just the moment of that set, the moment of whatever happened. And yeah, his reaction is great. But then again, yeah, he will be missing the next game.
00:28:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
So you feel like you're being punished.
00:28:08
Dan King
Do you know who the first person in was? he's been Like we said about him being everywhere, Tyle Adams was the first one to drag Kuno away.
00:28:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah I can't remember now because it was it was on the other side of the pitch from where we were. ah But yeah, I'm not surprised. I'm not surprised.
Conclusion & Future Prospects
00:28:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
And yeah.
00:28:27
Dan King
it's just yeah so we're gonna get what we're gonna do for our semi-final when we beat Man City we're gonna go to London
00:28:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
We are going to bloody Wembley. Yes, we are. Yes, we are. Because we've got a taxi that will take us, right? So...
00:28:43
Dan King
yeah you probably charge the other people you won't be charging me will you Victor
00:28:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
We'll see. We'll make the deal. We'll we'll figure something out. Let's let's beat City and and and then and have a beer to that.
00:28:55
Dan King
oh Yes.
00:28:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think this is this is yeah our main our main thing because now especially we've got few tough games ahead of us. We're going playing City twice. We're going to playing Arsenal again. Villa.
00:29:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah And the especially Villa, the way they're playing now with some of the players they got on all. Rashford, Innocentia are brilliant. And it seems like they're not missing out on on John Duran going to, you know, to Saudi.
00:29:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
um So, but hopefully, yeah, hopefully we can we can make it. We can go through, we can watch Bournemouth playing, you in a massive stadium, right? We don't have to worry if we're going to get tickets because we will get tickets for Wembley. It's not the same situation like Vitality.
00:29:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
um Yeah. But um yeah, we can only look forward and then hope for the best. And that's it. always cheer and say up the cherries.
