Glasner jokes about West Ham manager Moyes freaking out

Oliver Glasner was joking. his team Eintracht Frankfurt had just reached the Europa League final, the big and exuberant party in front of 48,000 spectators began immediately afterwards. His fellow coach David Moyes, who West Ham United not just 0-1but also lost control for a short time, things didn’t go so well: semi-final elimination and red card, it was an unpleasant evening.

Nevertheless, the Austrian Glasner allowed himself a joke about the Englishman late Thursday evening. “You can see that David Moyes isn’t quite as tech-savvy as I am. Maybe that’s because he’s a few years older,” said Glasner about the action of the West Ham coach, who wanted to shoot the ball at a ball child, but clearly missed with a powerful shot.

“That was an unnecessary action, he knows that himself. But I don’t want to comment on a colleague now,” explained Glasner, although he had already done so after his freak out and being sent off in the 78th minute of the game. The Austrian himself had a similar campaign this season. In the group game at Olympiakos Piraeus last year, Glasner threw a ball into the audience.

Moyes apologized for his behavior after the game. However, he criticized the Eintracht colleagues. He was “very disappointed with the bank’s reaction,” said the Englishman after the game. “You can’t react like that. I hope my bench wouldn’t do that.” It wasn’t about his dismissal, however, but that of defender Aaron Creswell. The referee initially showed yellow after his foul on Jens Petter Hauge. It only became red after protests from Frankfurt and a note from the video assistant.
