During the first half of the game, there were many moments when Jorgensen hesitated in front of the goal and tried to play short balls almost every time, causing the team to set up the game slowly, resulting in occasional boos from the home fans. Maresca responded to the issue by saying that he had urged his players to stick to his plan.

“My message to Philip was, ‘If you play long balls, I’ll take you off,’ so he did what I told him to do,” Maresca said of Jorgensen’s play.

“I am very happy (with Philip), little details can make a difference,” ( sunlit1688 )
