On the red card Ekitike received in midweek…No, if disciplined means that I spoke to him then it’s disciplined – but I don’t think that is disciplined. Disciplined means a fine – and that he didn’t get. So, it wasn’t very smart what he did, what he recognised himself immediately straight away, so he said sorry straight away to his teammates. He’s young. Players of all ages do make mistakes and that’s what he did in this situation as well. But we all make mistakes and you’re allowed at this club to make a mistake without immediately getting fined or…
