Idrissa Gueye Apologizes for His Outrageous Red Card Incident

Following his surprising red card in the match against Manchester United, where Everton secured a 1-0 away victory, Idrissa Gueye has finally spoken out. The Everton midfielder was sent off for slapping his teammate Michael Keane during a regular game incident, and he has publicly acknowledged his mistake to clarify the matter.

“First, I want to apologize to my teammate, Michael Keane. I take full responsibility for my reaction. I also apologize to the rest of my teammates, the staff, the supporters, and the club. What happened does not reflect who I am and the values I stand for. Emotions can take over, but nothing justifies such behavior. I will make sure this never happens again,” he stated in an Instagram story. After the final whistle, coach David Moyes had already attempted to downplay the incident.
