And star Erling Haaland accused Alexander Milosevic of calling him a “whore” on the field.
Mikael Lustig is partially defending his AIK teammate.
– Often you don’t go out and say what was said on the field.
The exchange of words between the Norwegian star and the Swedish midfielder was clearly seen in the television broadcast of the Nations League meeting between Sweden and Norway on the Friends website on Sunday.
But after the match and Norway’s 2-1 victory, Haaland said Milosevic had said.
Unusual by Haaland
– At first he called me a whore, I can safely say that I am not. Then he said he was going to break my leg and a minute later I scored a goal. It was a remarkable thing, Haaland, the two-goal defender, told Norway’s TV2 channel.
When AIK met on Tuesday after the holiday, the former national team defender and Milosevic’s teammate Michael Lustig Their views on the discussion and the titles released next.
– It’s something that broke out. Haaland comes out and says what they said on the football field and you don’t do it often. But I don’t think he (Milosevic) is trying to look for any conflict, Lustig says.
– It was something he said in a sentence and it is clear that the media is thirsty for him. But it is a chicken of feathers. It’s not something you think about.
Is it a bit of a taboo? Keep what happens in the field, in the field?
– Yes, it depends. If it’s about racism and the like, I really hope people are willing to speak up. Lustig tells Sportbladet that swear words and the like have probably always been around.
95% say things
Then you say things during the game that you are not proud of. But in the heat of battle, you might get slapped, and that’s what happens.
Such things are said on the football field, regardless of whether it is the Sixth Division or the Champions League. You have always done that and always will be.
Those who say it are not proud of it then and thereafter, but that it is, says Michael Lustig.
Is it positive that this is highlighted so that these things are gone…?
Of course positive things can come out of this. Lustig says I buy it lifts, but it won’t go away completely.
– If you put a microphone on 20 players out of 22, there will be headlines. It’s a pity that Milo is the one riding it. 95% of players say things you don’t want to see in the papers.
