Guler, a player from Real Madrid, was feeling parched during their match against Liverpool. He reached for a bottle of water, only for it to be snatched away from him. This has left Real Madrid fans feeling upset and frustrated, as footage has emerged showing one of Liverpool's medical staff denying Guler access to water during the game.
Liverpool had just secured a 2-0 victory over Real Madrid in their Champions League clash at Anfield on Wednesday, thanks to goals from Alexis Mac Allister and Cody Gakpo. The team quickly shifted their focus back to Premier League matters, with a highly anticipated match against Manchester City coming up on Sunday. However, just three days after their win over Real Madrid, previously unseen footage has come to light, showing an unusual altercation between one of Liverpool's staff members and Guler, a talented player from Turkey.
During the game, Liverpool's medical staff had rushed onto the pitch to tend to Darwin Nunez, who required treatment. In the video, a member of Liverpool's staff, believed to be head of medicine and performance Jonathan Power, can be seen in the crowd with his medical bag. Guler, who is only 19 years old, reaches over to grab a bottle from the bag. However, Power quickly snatches the bag away, leaving Guler looking confused and perplexed. This unexpected incident has caused a stir among Real Madrid fans, with Spanish daily AS describing it as an "ugly gesture."
One fan on social media expressed their disappointment, stating, "1st win in 15 years and this is how they act, imagine if they had won in 2018 or 2022. I really respected Liverpool and didn't expect something like this from them." Another fan wrote, "This is the reason why nobody likes Liverpool."
Despite this incident, Liverpool has been in great form this season, winning all five of their matches in Europe. This latest victory has put them at the top of the Champions League's new league format, on track to automatically qualify for the knockout stages in the New Year. On the other hand, Real Madrid's place is less certain, as they have already lost three games in Europe this season and are currently ranked 24th. Only the top eight teams will automatically qualify for the knockout phase, with teams finishing between ninth and 24th entering a playoff.
