The Euro 2024 has been the talk of the town for football fans, but not all for the right reasons. In the midst of the excitement, Netherlands manager Ronald Koeman found himself in the spotlight for an unexpected and rather unpleasant reason. During their match against Poland, cameras caught Koeman in a stomach-churning moment as he picked his nose and proceeded to put his finger in his mouth with a smile.
Despite the shocking moment, the Netherlands managed to secure a win thanks to goals from Cody Gakpo and Wout Weghorst. This victory was crucial for the team and for Koeman, who will face one of the tournament favorites, France, in their next game. However, the headlines were not solely focused on their triumph, but also on Koeman's unhygienic and unsportsmanlike behavior.
Norwegian TV channel NRK TV broadcasted the moment live, leaving one of their commentators audibly disgusted. The clip quickly went viral, creating a buzz on Twitter. Users expressed their disbelief and disgust towards Koeman's actions, with some even making jokes about it. One user, @The_Forty_Four, simply stated, "Ronald Koeman that is vile mate." Another, @nocontextfm1, called Koeman "disgusting" and "disgraceful." Even the popular Men in Blazers page joined in, humorously stating, "The Dutch team is not the only thing Ronald Koeman picks."
The incident also sparked a debate among football fans, with some expressing their dislike towards Koeman. One user, Lea, shared that while they have fond memories of many former Everton managers, Koeman and Rafa Benitez are the two they cannot stand. Others, like Benny Blanco, made puns about the situation, saying, "Koeman nose Wout he's doing. Weghorst's career is snot over. Pick that out." Some even made comparisons to former Germany manager Joachim Low's infamous finger sniffing antics.
As the Netherlands prepare to face France in their upcoming match, fans can only hope that Koeman will be on better behavior. The focus should be on the game and the players, rather than on unsavory actions. It is important for managers to set a good example for their team and the football community as a whole. Let's hope Koeman learns from this incident and keeps his fingers out of his nose in the future.
