Be rich, but never talk about money. Be fit, but never talk about working out. Be sharp, but never mention books. You're a man. Neverrrrrrrrrr everrrrrrrrrr let excitement make you announce things prematurely. Stay low-key and move silently. Trust me, you'll never regret it.
🚨 Sergi Cardona on facing Rio Ngumoha:
“People watching at home probably thought we weren’t defending properly. I understand that.
But there was something very annoying about playing against Rio.
Normally, when you’re facing a winger, you try to work out what he wants to do. Does he want to go outside? Does he want to come inside? Is he waiting for support?
With Rio Ngumoha, I couldn’t work it out.
The first time he came towards me, I thought he was going outside. He came inside.
The next time, I remembered what happened and tried to stop him coming inside.
He went outside.
Then there was another situation where I decided I wasn’t going to make the first move.
I thought, ‘Fine. Let’s see what you do now.’
He stopped with the ball.
I stopped.
For a moment, we were both just standing there looking at each other.
Then he moved, and somehow I was running towards our own goal again.
I remember speaking to my teammate. I told him, ‘When he gets the ball, come closer. Don’t leave me alone.’
He said, ‘I was close to you the last time.’
I said, ‘Then come closer than that.’
That’s how difficult it was.
And the worst thing was that he didn’t look tired. You’d make a challenge, recover your position, and he’d be asking for the ball again.
At one point, I looked towards our bench because I thought maybe the manager had an idea.
He was watching the same thing I was watching.
Listen, I’ve played against quick players before. I’ve played against technically gifted players. That’s football.
But this boy is 18, playing in the Champions League, and he was attacking us as though somebody had told him we were the youth team.
After the match, one of the guys said, ‘He’s going to be a very good player.’
I told him, ‘Yes, but I would’ve preferred to discover that on television.’
I wish him a great career.
I just hope the next time Liverpool play us, he has something else planned for the evening.”
