Wout Weghorst slammed for celebrating goal after Hungary coach collapsed on touchline
November 17, 2024
Wout Weghorst scored the Netherlands’ first goal in their UEFA Nations League win over Hungary but the match was earlier stopped as Hungary coach Adam Szalai was hospitalized
Former Manchester United and Burnley striker Wout Weghorst has been blasted for celebrating a goal just minutes after Hungary’s assistant coach Adam Szalai was taken to hospital during a Nations League clash in Amsterdam.
Weghorst could not hide his delight when he fired Holland ahead from the penalty spot after 21 minutes as Ronald Koeman’s men ran out 4-0 winners in the Johan Cruyff Arena. Play was controversially restarted with a penalty following a VAR check after a delay of more than 10 minutes after 36-year-old Szalai had collapsed on the touchline.
