Martin Odegaard furious with Bernardo Silva after late challenge in Norway defeat

Martin Ødegaard has criticised Bernardo Silva after the Arsenal captain was left nursing an ankle problem following Norway’s 2-1 defeat to Portugal in the UEFA Nations League. According to GOAL, Silva caught Odegaard with a late challenge in the closing stages at Ullevaal Stadium, prompting an angry reaction from the Norway midfielder.

Ødegaard described the tackle as unnecessary and said it did not belong on a football pitch. He received treatment after the final whistle and admitted his ankle was painful, although he remained hopeful that the knock would not prove serious.
