Darwin Nunez made his first start of the season against Bournemouth and took full advantage of the chance given to him by Arne Slot.
After the match, Slot commented on Nunez’s goal: “Initially, I wondered why he shot instead of continuing to dribble. He had space, and the defender was down.
But just moments later, I saw the ball hit the post and go in, and I thought, ‘Maybe he’s a better player than I was!’ It turned out to be a smart decision on his part.”
Slot’s candid reflection showed his initial frustration at Nunez’s shot from a tough angle. However, once the ball found the net, all criticism disappeared, allowing us to appreciate the talent of our 25-year-old striker.
