- Slot gives his view on boos
- Believes they were not intentional
- ليفربول defeated on penalties
Slot has given his view on the incident which resulted in a minute’s silence for Jota and brother Andre Silva being ended early ahead of the درع المجتمع. كريستال بالاس fans appeared to boo the tribute and the referee acted swiftly by blowing his whistle and bringing it to a premature end.
The incident marred an afternoon that saw a dramatic game on the pitch between the two sides. The Eagles winning on penalties after a 2-2 draw at Wembley, handing a rare defeat to Liverpool ahead of the start of their الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز titl defence.
As reported by James Benge of CBS, Slot said after the game: “I don’t think this was planned. Maybe the fan was not aware of the minute’s silence and was happy and tried to cheer for his team, then the Palace fans tried to calm him down. I don’t think they had a bad intention.”
Liverpool begin their Premier League title defence at home to بورنموث on Friday 15. Slot and his side will hope not to see a repeat of such an incident as tributes to Jota and Silva will no doubt continue in the coming weeks and months.
