Jadon Sancho was a happy man after his friend Bukayo Saka steered the England national team to a win against Switzerland and the win took the Nation to the semi-finals.
Jadon Sancho wrote a message to Bukayo Saka and told him that he is very proud of the Arsenal star and he did it for him and Marcus Rashford. The three players have a very dark past especially with the EURO 2021 edition.
They missed potential penalties and eventually England was bundled out of the competition. They were racially abused and this also really affected them psychologically and physically. They cried despite being men and their performance went down.
Mikel Arteta on the other hand wanted Bukayo Saka to get over that and he put more pressure on him and selected him as the penalty taker for Arsenal. This magic worked wonders and Bukayo Saka gained his confidence and put all his past behind.
In the game against Switzerland, he produced the best performance and he was voted in as the best player of the match. He scored the equalizing goal that brought England back to the game and also went ahead to score and convert his penalty.
Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford were however not included in the squad that is in Germany for the EURO 2024. That is the reason why Jadon Sancho congratulated Bukayo Saka because he prevented them from further criticism and possible cyber bullying online.
The fans should also restrain from judging the players with their color pigment. It is not right to praise someone when the team wins and again racially abuse the same person and player who was praised if things do not go well on the pitch.
If the fans can be more accommodative, then football may be redefined and it may be enjoyable each and every time.
