Liverpool midfielder, Curtis Jones has come out to say that he never dives on a football pitch. This is coming after he won Liverpool a penalty against Chelsea in their 2-1 win at Anfield.
According to him, he definitely felt the contact from Colwill before going down in the box, so no one should accuse him of diving.
Jones added that he was very pleased for his goal vs the Blues, and he thanks Salah for the assist.
His words, “I never dive. I felt the contact, went down and it was a penalty.”
On his goal, “There’s been times when I have arrived in the box and it is a first-time finish. As soon as Mo [Salah] had the ball I made the run, but it bounced so I had to have a touch, and then thankfully it went in.”
WOW.
Chelsea Football Club is an English professional football club based in Fulham, West London. Founded in 1905, they play their home games at Stamford Bridge.
The club competes in the Premier League, the top division of English football. They won their first major honour, the League championship, in 1955. The club won the FA Cup for the first time in 1970, their first European honour, the Cup Winners’ Cup, in 1971, and became the third English club to win the Club World Cup in 2022.
On 7 May 2022, Chelsea confirmed that terms have been agreed for a new ownership group, led by Todd Boehly, Clearlake Capital, Mark Walter and Hansjörg Wyss, to acquire the club. The group was later known as BlueCo.
The UK government approved the £4.25bn takeover, ending Abramovich’s 19-year ownership of the club. Bruce Buck, who served as chairman since 2003, was replaced by Boehly, while long-serving club director and de facto sporting director Marina Granovskaia left, as did Petr Čech from the role of technical and performance advisor.
