Details of the conflict between Ghana's head coach and Bellingham
In the second round of the World Cup, the match between England and Ghana ended in a 0-0 draw. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
Aside from the result of the match, a conflict that occurred on the substitute bench sparked much discussion among fans. Ghana's Portuguese head coach, Carlos Queiroz, spoke in detail about a clash with English player Jude Bellingham in the final minutes.
It all began at the end of the second half. Bellingham acted very aggressively toward Ghana defender Jeremy Opoku.
Queiroz, standing on the touchline, identified this as a foul and reprimanded the English player. This caused the young star to lose his temper.
The coach explained as follows: He used offensive words and showed an inappropriate attitude. That is why this incident started.
I wanted to tell him to calm down after the match. For this action, he could have received a second yellow or even a straight red card, because he intentionally kicked my player's leg.
Queiroz certainly acknowledges that football is a game of courage. However, the words used by Bellingham crossed a simple boundary.
It was simply an emotional state. He said a word that should never be spoken in life.
This could have escalated the situation further. But as professionals, we immediately stopped ourselves.
Football is not for those who dance in tuxedos, but for brave people, the coach said. The situation in the group has taken a very interesting turn.
Three teams are fighting for a spot in the playoffs. Both England and Ghana have collected 4 points.
Croatia is in third place with 3 points. Panama still has 0 points.
On the final day, June 28, England will play Panama, and Croatia will play Ghana. For Ghana, this match is a matter of life and death.
A victory against Croatia will strengthen their playoff chances. England will try to secure a win over Panama.
