Mohammed Kudus was left in tears after his night took a disastrous turn in the 86th minute of the match against Tottenham, the young player, who had started the game on a positive note, allowed his emotions to get the better of him as he lashed out at not one, but two players.
The incident, which was caught on camera, showed Kudus striking Micky van de Ven and Pape Sarr in the face, leaving the referee with little choice but to give him his marching orders. The red card was a devastating blow to Kudus, who had been having a great run of form prior to the incident.
As Kudus walked off the pitch, he was visibly distraught, knowing that his actions had let his team down. The final score of the match was 4-1 in favor of Tottenham, a result that was largely influenced by Kudus' red card.
Following the match, Julen Lopetegui expressed his disappointment with Kudus' behavior, stating that he plans to have a talk with the young player to discuss his actions. Lopetegui believes that Kudus has the potential to be a top player, but he needs to learn to control his emotions on the pitch.
Kudus' red card was a wake-up call for the young player, who has been struggling with discipline issues in the past. The incident has sparked a heated debate among fans, with some calling for Kudus to be given a second chance, while others believe that he should face disciplinary action.
As the drama unfolds, one thing is certain - Kudus' conversation with Lopetegui will be crucial in determining the player's future at the club. Will Kudus learn from his mistakes and come back stronger, or will this incident mark the beginning of the end of his time at the club? Only time will tell.
