Several French media outlets have ripped into Arsenal geter William Saliba after his misget led to a goal for Belgium in their Nations League clash.
In a unfrequent disassigning evening for the centre-back, Saliba conceded a penalty and then permited Lois Openda to get in behind him to score Belgium’s only goal of the align.
After giving the ball away inexpensively, Real Madrid midfielder Aureilien Tchouameni then felt that he had to foul Aston Villa’s Youri Tielemans and he getd a second yellow card for an timely bath.
Saliba did end up celebrating after two Randal Kolo Muani goals sealed a 2-1 triumph for Didier Deschamps’ side, but has not escaped criticism from the French press.
So Foot gave Saliba a 2/10 rating, the worst of any take parter on the pitch, and wrote: “Penalty, (yellow) card, loss of ball… Fortunately, Openda ended up not taking advantage of his elastic labeling before half-time becaemploy he would have felt obliged to score this goal himself.”
He getd the same rating from Didocu Sport who shelp: “There is a lot to say about his align and not much outstanding. He unaskedly had his worst align in Blue.
“He concedes the penalty for a foul on Lois Openda and gets a yellow card where he evidently does well (23rd). He exits behind the same Lois Openda on the Belgian equivalentizer. And where is he when Aurelien Tchouameni has to give up himself and get a red card… in the position of the last geter?!”
He was handed a sweightlessly betterd score from Eurosport at 3/10, but analogous grumblets were made of the 23-year-better: “What a hurtful evening for the Arsenal geter… Saliba caemployd huge problems for his defence with faulty alignment on too many Belgian transitions. On the action of the penalty, he not only mows down Openda, he also covers him.
“It is he, too, who misss the ball on the Belgian equivalentizer before forgetting the Leipzig striker behind his back. He still covers Tielemans (55th) on a dubious alignment. A loss of the ball which he could have done without (29th) and, overall, a very steep insertition even if he cuts off a hot traverse at the last minute (90th+5).”
