There’s nothing but love between those two. The Australian goalkeeper Mathew Ryan joined FC Copenhagen in August. But he stayed on the bench during the first hole of the season, while Polish stopper Kamil Grabara kept goal for the Danish club.
The situation wasn’t the one Ryan expected when he arrived, and he said in an interview with TV2 just before the World Cup that the reason why Grabara was the first-choice keeper was simply political. Then, there was a clash.
Wait for the right moment to respond
After Ryan’s big mistake against Argentina on Saturday, the third-choice Polish goalkeeper didn’t wait more than 10 minutes before reacting.
“Must have been politics, for sure,” Kamil Grabara wrote on his Twitter account, before adding a wink-smiley face.
Dealing with it internally
The two keepers have both been eliminated from the 2022 World Cup in the last 16, as Australia and Poland respectively lost against Argentina and France on Saturday and Sunday.
Therefore, they will both be returning to their club soon, where the atmosphere is promising to be quite tense between the two men.
FCK told TV2 they were going to handle the matter internally.
