“Thinking ‘oh I’m going to get it out of the air and play it,’ no. Two opposing players are coming your way, just head the ball back and defend. Sancho scored his goal really well but this you don’t do it. Also, you know yourself himself… yes, technically he’s a very good player but he’s not a fast player so he’s never going to catch up with Sancho so you don’t take any chances,” said Hasselbaink of the blunder. Jorginho.
