“Recently, people were saying teams don’t take risks, players don’t dribble, and sides play not to lose instead of trying to win. Tonight, there was a lot of risk-taking. So if you had your defensive-minded hat on, yes, you could go crazy watching this match… But I don’t care!” he explained.
Henry fully embraced his enjoyment of such a spectacle: “For the past year or two, we’ve been complaining that football is boring, and this match wasn’t. If you leave the professional side aside, I had fun, and I think everyone had fun too.” A perfect summary of the evening: a thrilling, imperfect defensive display, but one that will be remembered as a true showcase of attacking football.
