Microphones Catch Van Dijk’s Pre-Game Pep Talk…
Grab the popcorn, folks! Soccer commentator Peter Drury found himself in hot water as the airwaves sizzled with some spicy language from Liverpool’s very own Virgil van Dijk. Just as the Reds were gathering for their iconic pre-game huddle, our pal Virgil decided it was time to drop an F-bomb heard ’round the world. “We worked so hard to be here. Let’s f—— do it again. Come on!” boomed into living rooms across the globe. Oopsie daisy!
Ever the professional, Drury immediately apologized on live TV, saying, “I must start the afternoon with an apology if you picked up any bad language amongst the players in the pumped-up moments towards kickoff.” No worries, Peter – we’re all human, and sometimes we just gotta let those feelings fly! Liverpool fans were likely more focused on the match than a little linguistic slip-up!
For van Dijk & Co., the pressure is on as they aim to snag a Carabao Cup victory at Wembley against a tough Newcastle squad. Van Dijk reminisced about last year’s triumph over Chelsea and is clearly itching to lift another trophy. Let’s see if their colorful language comes accompanied by more colorful celebrations!
