<![CDATA[ Nuno Espírito Santo põe água na fervura após polémica com Marinakis ]]>

The dressing down that Evangelos Marinakis, owner of Nottingham Forest, gave Nuno Espírito Santo on the pitch after the draw with Leicester caused a lot of ink to flow. Fans and former Premier League figures sided with the coach, such as Gary Neville. “It was a scandalous episode. Nuno should negotiate his departure. The fans, the players and the coach don't deserve this”, he argued. Despite everything, the Portuguese player calmed the situation. “It was frustration and passion talking. He pushes us, he wants us to always be better”, said Nuno, explaining that it was all due to a communication error with the medical team about Taiwo Awoniyi's injury. The coach made the last substitution thinking that the Nigerian could continue, something that did not happen, leaving the team playing with ten men.
