Thiago Silva blasts Brazilian media for Enzo Fernandez joke
Thiago Silva, the Chelsea defender, criticized some of his acquaintances in the media in Brazil for ridiculing his fellow team member Enzo Fernandez.
Chelsea recently lost by a narrow margin in the round of 16 in the Champions League against Borussia Dortmund.
The German team secured a 1-0 lead in the first leg, courtesy of a stunning solo goal from Karim Adeyemi in the second half.
Adeyemi demonstrated his exceptional speed by running the entire length of the pitch and evading the goalkeeper to score.
After a corner for Chelsea, Dortmund launched a quick counter-attack, and Enzo Fernandez was the last player to retreat to defend.
However, he was not able to keep up with Karim Adeyemi, who was extremely fast, and as a result, Fernandez trailed behind.
Adeyemi’s rapid pace has led to criticism of the most expensive player in Britain, which did not sit well with Thiago Silva.
South America’s TNT Sports posted an image of the Chelsea midfielder alongside the caption: “Call the Uber! Enzo Fernandez is looking for Adeyemi so far.”
Silva has expressed his anger by replying to the post: “Lack of respect, huh!!! Be more serious with your work.”
