Odegaard-Silva Clash in Nations League

Norwegian captain Martin Ødegaard was left furious after receiving a tackle on his ankle from Portuguese midfielder Bernardo Silva during added time of their Nations League match in Oslo. The incident, which occurred as Portugal secured a 2-1 victory, reignited the long-standing Premier League rivalry between the Arsenal captain and the newly-signed Real Madrid player.

Silva's challenge, which only earned a yellow card, drew immediate protest from Ødegaard as the match concluded. The two players have maintained a competitive relationship through their encounters in the English Premier League before Silva's recent transfer from Manchester City to Real Madrid. mchezo.co.za
