Manchester United midfielder, Paul Pogba has come out to say that his role in Arsenal’s penalty was a stupid mistake.
He recently revealed that MUFC played poorly and he gave away the penalty because he was out of breath.
According to him, he thought he would touch the ball, but he did not, so he agrees that he needs to do better.
He added that he would learn from his mistakes and would eventually improve his defensive game to help the club.
His words, “We know it’s a poor performance. Myself, I cannot give a foul away like this,”
“I thought I would touch the ball but I didn’t. I cost us the goal today with the penalty.
“Like I say, details. We have to do better, the team, myself, it starts with me.
“I felt like I touched him a bit, I knew I was in the box, I shouldn’t have given a penalty away like that. Maybe I was a bit out of breath, it made me do this stupid mistake
“I will learn from that, I’m not the best defensively in the box, I can work on that.
“We also need to do more with the ball creating chances. We didn’t expect to be man for man, but after this we can adapt, we have to find a solution but we didn’t. That’s why we weren’t dangerous with the ball.
“But like I say, the team performance needs to be a lot better.”
