Malen: “After the red card in Como, I apologised – I didn’t mean to hurt anyone”

Turin, 13 Oct. (LaPresse) – “There’s a lot of frustration and disappointment following the last league match, but I think it was clear that I didn’t mean to hurt anyone. I’m motivated for tomorrow; it’ll be the perfect opportunity to test ourselves against one of the best teams in Europe.” This was stated by Roma striker Donyell Malen, who was sent off in the last league match against Como, at a press conference on the eve of the Champions League match against Real Madrid. “I apologised after the match; it had been a long time since I’d been sent off, and in fact it was very frustrating watching the rest of the match from the changing rooms.”
